I just like having it around, it's fun. I also have some weird merch that I got out of like,,, a combination of it being funny and a genuine interest in the history of my fandoms.

Some weird merch I own - several Blake's 7 and Sapphire & Steel badges (the kind of free fan club tat that goes for, like, $7 each on Ebay nowadays), all 5 of the Doctor Who Target novelizations that were released in Japanese in the '80s (featuring some AMAZING illustrations by an artist who had clearly never seen the show), and far too many old fanzines ranging from the late '60s to the '80s. When it comes to fanzines I tend to focus on zines from periods where I know there was drama going on in the fandom (for the letters columns - it's very funny to see these people bitching about fandom drama through snail mail) and slash zines (again for the historical value).

Where are you buying slash zines from???

Ebay lmao. Generally speaking the seller will note if the zine is gen or slash in the listing. Slash zines are generally slightly more expensive (because they were less popular at the time), but if you keep your eye open and look for them in lots rather than individually you can usually find some good deals.
