I could only find about three or four more originals that I liked well enough to share. So instead I picked through the back issues and chose ten of the covers, which I&#8217;ve scanned right off the newsletters themselves.<\/p>\n<p>That means that today&#8217;s quality isn&#8217;t as high. These covers are over thirty years old, and they were just photocopies even when they were young. But all the same, here they are.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"RS_Cover\">\n  <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.webomator.com\/grafx3\/blog\/Runestaff08.jpg\" width=\"355\" height=\"550\" alt=\"Runestaff cover for #8\"><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.webomator.com\/2016\/01\/16\/some-of-my-drawings-for-the-runestaff-1981-1985\/\">I had plenty to say yesterday<\/a> about my memories of <em>The Runestaff<\/em>. I doubt I have much to add here. So today, it&#8217;s mostly the pictures. As before there are so many of them that I&#8217;ve placed most under the &#8220;More&#8221; link below.<\/p>\n\n<!--more-->\n\n<p>One difference between these covers and the cover drawings I posted yesterday is that these have been pasted into the <em>Runestaff<\/em> border. We used the same cover border for as long as I worked on the magazine and for at least two issues after my time. Those two are the latest I have, so I don&#8217;t know how much longer the border endured.<\/p>\n<p>Paste-ups, for those too young to remember, are what we made when we laid out documents in those high and far-off times.<\/p>\n<div class=\"RS_Cover\">\n  <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.webomator.com\/grafx3\/blog\/Runestaff09.jpg\" width=\"354\" height=\"550\" alt=\"Runestaff cover for #9\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"RS_Cover\">\n  <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.webomator.com\/grafx3\/blog\/Runestaff12.jpg\" width=\"351\" height=\"550\" alt=\"Runestaff cover for #12\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"RS_Cover\">\n  <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.webomator.com\/grafx3\/blog\/Runestaff21.jpg\" width=\"353\" height=\"550\" alt=\"Runestaff cover for #21\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"RS_Cover\">\n  <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.webomator.com\/grafx3\/blog\/Runestaff23.jpg\" width=\"352\" height=\"550\" alt=\"Runestaff cover for #23\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"RS_Cover\">\n  <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.webomator.com\/grafx3\/blog\/Runestaff24.jpg\" width=\"355\" height=\"550\" alt=\"Runestaff cover for #24\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"RS_Cover\">\n  <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.webomator.com\/grafx3\/blog\/Runestaff25.jpg\" width=\"354\" height=\"550\" alt=\"Runestaff cover for #25\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"RS_Cover\">\n  <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.webomator.com\/grafx3\/blog\/Runestaff26.jpg\" width=\"357\" height=\"550\" alt=\"Runestaff cover for #26\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"RS_Cover\">\n  <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.webomator.com\/grafx3\/blog\/Runestaff33.jpg\" width=\"353\" height=\"550\" alt=\"Runestaff cover for #33\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yesterday\u2019s post of pen and ink drawings I did for The Runestaff proved to be so popular over on Facebook that I figured I should follow up with more.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3,15],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4123","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-cant-stop-thinking","category-works-in-progress"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.webomator.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4123","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.webomator.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.webomator.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.webomator.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.webomator.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4123"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.webomator.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4123\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.webomator.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4123"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.webomator.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4123"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.webomator.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4123"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
