  1. Hi Philip, you don’t by chance have Aquarian Agent Vol. 1 No. 9 (August 1970)? I am looking for an article or report that was posted in that issue concerning the American psychologist Vernon Clark and his famous experiments testing astrologers from 1959-1961. I am working on an introduction for Cosmocritic.

    Thanks

    Kirk

    • Hi Kirk! I regret not – the issues shown are all I have, and I haven’t seen the earliest ones for sale for a very long time, if ever. Might be worth asking Kris Riske at the AFA if they have it – or checking the catalogue records of the University of Illinois Library in case it was among the issues donated there by Michael Erlewine.

      As chance would have it, I’ve just been thinking about filling gaps in this title lately, but the only substantial lot I’ve been able to find on the market was for 18 issues of which I already had nine, and they are all late ones and not exactly cheap!

      Best wishes,

      Philip
