We're sad to learn of the passing of Fred Johnston. He was a regular in the Honest Ulsterman and many of the magazines that make up the Archive from the 1960s onwards. @HonestUlsterman @ACNIWriting

Afternoon. A bit of Northern Review ephemera here. A letter from 1964 explaining the whys and wherefores of the forthcoming magazine. I wonder what the May Festival and Festival 64 were? Thanks to Carolyn Robb for it. huarchive.co/items/show/545 @HonestUlsterman @ACNIWriting

An advert from Scottish Arts and Letters in the 1940s. Don't recall ever seeing an advert like this in any other literary magazine! Also somewhat ironic as there weren't many women actually in the issue. Perhaps many women read it...@HonestUlsterman @ACNIWriting
