Phil here:  Research on this one involved some deep dives on the interwebs.  It also involved one of my favorite reads:  Back Issue!  As long as I keep coming back to stuff from the 70s, 80s, or 90s I'm gonna be checking out that fine, fine mag.  Anyway, here's what I used for research!

Back Issue (TwoMorrows Publishing):  115
