Light

Light was a fanzine by Leslie Croutch of Parry Sound, Ontario, Canada.

Light was first published in 1941 and continued to be released for three decades. Leslie Croutch was a self employed radio and television repairman, working from home, and was active in the National Fantasy Fan Federation, and Light was a Science Fiction fandom fanzine. It was also a regular zine for the FAPA.

Light included the work of Bob Gibson, who did on-stencil covers for every other issue of the zine, alternating with John Cockcroft. The exceptions were the covers done by Nils Helmer Frome (Supramundane Stories), who did the artwork for the cover for the February 1942 issue, and the cover for the April 1942 issue. Light also included illustrations by Gordon Peck.

Contributors included Forrest J. Ackerman (Voice of the Imagi-Nation), Barbara Bovard, Ray Bradbury (Futuria Fantasia), David H. Keller, Norman V. Lamb, and Donald Wollheim (The Phantagraph).
