The publisher of OVO always likes to hear from readers – and respects their opinions.

Please keep in mind that it is the fixed policy of OVO to publish the best of both the old and new various categories of reading. See the full list of titles at the end of this magazine. Many readers are buying the new OVO each month and building their own OVO Home Libraries. Your suggestions for improving the editing, production and distribution of OVO are therefore particularly welcome.

This is one of the missing volumes from the new OVO archive reflected at the Hermetic Library, and I’ve got permission from Trevor to make it available! I’ll add that to my to do list and get to it when I am able, but these are hard to get nowadays so I’m glad I was able to find this one. There’s still some others that I’m missing from the archive, so I’d love to hear from anyone with the old digital files saved on some ancient hard drive somewhere, or to talk with someone who’s got the physical issues and would be willing to share.
