Magazine Overview
Title: Anomaly
Publisher: Specialized Research
Issue Date: Not specified, but nine issues have been published in the past three years, totaling 164 pages. Some issues are four-paged newsletters, others are 32-paged magazines.
Content Focus: UFOs, monsters, psychic phenomena, and other strange events.
Distribution and Subscription
Anomaly is distributed free of charge. To receive a copy, readers are required to send a self-addressed, stamped 9x12 manila envelope. The use of regular postage stamps is specified, not air mail. This system is in place to keep costs down, as a subscription system would require extensive bookkeeping and time-consuming activities, and paying for stamps and envelopes would make publication prohibitive. The print run for each issue is based on the number of envelopes received, so readers are urged to send their requests promptly.
Editorial Content and Founder
The magazine was founded in 1969 by John A. Keel. Each issue features exclusive articles and reports by Mr. Keel that are not available elsewhere. Anomaly is not a club, and it does not offer membership cards or sell any products. The mailing list is kept strictly confidential.
Reader Participation
Specialized Research greatly appreciates relevant newspaper clippings, reports, and articles sent by readers. Researchers have been examining back issues of local newspapers from various "flap" years (e.g., 1896-97, 1909, 1914). While only a small percentage of submitted clippings are used directly in Anomaly, they are put to good use in articles and books, and copies are often distributed to other interested researchers. Anomaly's files are frequently consulted by scientists, writers, and TV producers.
Availability of Back Issues
Currently, only three back issues of Anomaly are still in stock: numbers 5, 7, and 8. To order these, separate 9x12 manila envelopes are required, with the number of the requested issue clearly marked on the outside.
Operational Challenges
The primary challenges faced by Anomaly are a lack of time, a lack of staff, and escalating costs. The organization is unable to maintain a complete file of addresses. Readers are reminded to always include their full name and address with any correspondence or clippings. If a reply or acknowledgement is expected, a stamped, self-addressed envelope or postcard should be enclosed. Efforts are made to answer all queries.
International Researchers
Foreign researchers can receive Anomaly by sending gummed labels containing their exact address, along with International Postal Coupons to cover postage costs. Money should not be sent.
Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance
The recurring theme of Anomaly is the constant occurrence of "weird things" in the world, specifically focusing on UFOs, monsters, and psychic phenomena. The editorial stance is one of reporting and documenting these phenomena, encouraging reader participation through submissions, and making the information accessible to a wide audience, including researchers and the general public, through its free distribution model. The emphasis is on providing unique content from its founder, John A. Keel, and utilizing reader contributions to build a comprehensive archive of anomalous events.
