Minox Publications

The least known of the Minox devoted publications, The Minox Letter was available free to U.S. registered owners.

The most famous issue known as the "Playboy" issue is shown. It features a photo of 1968's Playmate of the Year, Angela Doran using her Minox camera.

As with the "Memo", news, information, and famous users were spotlighted in its pages. While short lived, it contained many interesting articles, tidbits and product introductions.

Copies tend to be fairly scarce as the publication is quite lightweight. The fact it is only one sheet of paper also seems to have reduced the number of archived copies.
