Previous Issues

While Guideway was probably published soon after 1971, when MTS was founded, the newsletter issues were on paper and mailed out. Akos Szoboszlay was editor from about 1982 to 2003. When I became editor, the paste-up was done by hand and a mimeograph machine was used. After a few years, I was using page layout software when the Mac computer became available and used offset printing.

The Sacramento chapter of MTS had its own newsletter, Moving People, but only two issues of Moving People, were uploaded to the Internet.
