Title: The Reagan Record: Spring 1944
Description: N.p. [Los Angeles], N.p. 1944. 4to. 16pp. Line drawings. Very good. Single inoffensive staple hole at upper left of each recto (staple removed, with no staining); mild bit of edgewear only. A superb, clean and attractive issue of this short-lived quarterly publication of "The Only Official Ronald Reagan Club," a homsepun affair consisting of simple, rather heavy stock cream sheets, typed single-spaced and mimeographed. Among the officers, "Capt. Ronald Reagan" is listed as "Honorary Pres." (he served in the U.S. Army from 1942 to 1945, though not overseas), Arlene S. Polito as "Active Pres." Helen L. Staber as Vice President and Ruth Reiter as Secretary. Typical fanzine fare: A new letter to members "From Our Star," plenty of chitchat about his comings and goings and those of his co-stars, new honorary members (letters from actors Jinx Falkenburg and Jim Brown to Ruth Reiter), a "Reagan Club Album" in which three postage stamp size glossy photographs have been affixed, recent fan magazine appearances, a long patriotic poem, etc. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope (postage and cancellation corner removed, alas), showing this copy actually belonged to the club's secretary, Ruth Reiter. Very scarce. .
