The Sleuth - The Original Nancy Drew Fanzine

Check out The Sleuth! It's the Original Nancy Drew Fanzine - published 6 times per year. It's put together by members of the Nancy Drew Sleuths - an organization of scholars and collectors of Nancy Drew and other vintage series books. Articles focus on Nancy Drew, but we also feature several other vintage girls' and boys' series in each issue too.

We've been in print since 2006, but have recently undergone a few graphic & layout changes to spiff it up a bit. We're having a giveaway in honor of our new style which debuted with our May/June 2014 issue. For any new subscriptions or renewals from existing subscribers throughout the month of July, you'll be entered into a drawing for a free subscription, totebag, tee, mouse pad, magnets, and a car magnet--see samples below. Then we have a preview of page one of 4 of the articles in this month's issue plus the contents page. To subscribe (half year/ 1 year/ 2 year subscriptions available) or order back issues, visit our website.
