Rare 1970s UK newsletters - "South Lincs UFO Study Group Newsletter"

A few days ago, I posted a single issue of the "South Lincs UFO Study Group Newsletter" (1970s, United Kingdom). I have now obtained 25 issues of this rare newsletter, thanks to the AFU, and added them to my online archive.

The "South Lincs UFO Study Group" was a "member society" of BUFORA, which formed from the merger of numerous British UFO groups.  Many of the small local UFO groups that made up of BUFORA ceased to exist in the 1960-1970s as BUFORA became more dominant in Britain.  The South Lincs UFO Study Group was one such group.  It isn't feasible for me to get permission from anyone that was involved in such small groups (that sometimes only published a total of a few pages of newsletters), not least because everyone involved in some of those small groups has probably died.  I've contacted BUFORA about uploading scans of the small newsletters of some its older "member societies" and Heather Dixon has kindly indicated that she cannot see any problem with my uploading such small newsletters from those local groups.   


I'll continue trying to fill in some gaps.
