Mexican letter in DWM
I'm writing to you
from Mexico. I wanted to write
because I think your magazine is marvellous, and I have
been a fan of the Doctor since the early 70s, when the
William Hartnell series' were shown here. But I could see
only a few episodes, because the series wasn't very
successful and was taken off the air. After about 8 years,
the state tv station showed the early Tom Baker episodes,
from Robot to Invasion of Time. Since then
they have been periodically re-showing those episodes.
In the mean time, I
obtained an issue of Starburst featuring an article
about Doctor Who, and an advertisement for a new magazine
called Doctor Who Weekly. Since that day, I have
been trying to get an issue of the magazine, and finally I
obtained issues 54 and 55, and subscribed to it (I think
that there are very few Mexican subscribers to your
magazine.)
I'm very interested
in obtaining all the issues, from 1 to 53, and I have a
question to ask you: Are the special issues (like the
Summer Special) included in the subscription? If not, I
would be pleased if you could tell me how I can get those
special issues.
I'm writing this
letter, finally, to propose to all the people who want to
get a pen friend, to write to me. I do not speak English
very well, but I will try to answer every letter as soon as
possible, because I'm very interested in England, its
people and its customs.
I'm a 16 year old
boy. If anybody wants to write to me, he/she can send a
letter to:
Martin Bonfil Olivera
Gerrada Monserrat No. 9
La
Candelaria, Coyoacán
04380, Mexico, D.F.,
Mexico.
I wonder how many
people actually wrote to him and if he still lives at the
same address???
