We continue to celebrate the 40th anniversary of The National Lum and Abner Society by looking back 20 years to the August 2004 issue of The Jot ‘Em Down Journal! If you thought the first issue (1984) looked a “bit” crude, with this 2004 issue we’d reached state-of-the-art publishing techniques!
Check out the articles and the audio reading below!

Beginning with this issue, we have the original production PDF files of each page! By that I mean these are the master files sent to the printer in 2004! The link below takes you to a folder instead of a multipage PDF. The plus side of this is you get the very best quality that exists! Many thanks to Tim Hollis who preserved these files!
