I'm yet another Starlog long time fan. It is definitely what got me into this hobby. Loved all the behind the scenes stuff. In the little podunk town where I lived there was only one drugstore that got the mag and if they were lucky they only got two copies of an issue. So in 1978, when I was 13, my Mom asked me what I wanted for my birthday and all I wanted was a subscription to Starlog. I ordered all the back issues I missed (only missed a few). I kept that subscription up until about 1990.
All the other mags like Cinefex and Cinemagic, etc I would have to wait until I could get to a sci fi convention, which I would save for all year, and then I would just buy tons of mags. It was like sci fi Christmas!! Ah, those were the days.
