Daily Reports

Daily Reports is a gen Starsky and Hutch fanzine. 
While it was meant to be a monthly zine, there were only two issues: February 1981 and September 1981. 
In S and H #22 (June 1981), the editors said it had suspended operation until August 1981 due to family illness and personal issues. "Your subscriptions of 6 issues will begin then. Please consider #1 a sample issue." 
==From the Editor ==
In January 1982, the editor wrote a letter to fans:
 
==Issue 1==
Daily Reports 1 was published in February 1981 and had 15 pages. 
It is 8" x 11 1/2" in size and printed on heavy pink construction paper.
A fan in the April 1981 issue of S and H thanks the editor for the zine but comments: "Never realized that the first issue was going to be so skinny!"
