B37173 – Paul McCartney & Wings Fun Club 1973 – 1976 Newsletter & Booklet Collection (UK)

A very rare collection of newsletters and booklets issued by the Paul McCartney and Wings Fan Club between 1973 and 1976 prior to the beginning of the publication of the Club Sandwich newspaper. These newsletters were either in the form of typed foolscap folio (20.3cm x 33cm) sheets or A5 (14.8cm x 21cm) booklets, we have called the latter newsletters in the description below.
