Newsletter #1
Joe Dever is the creator of the bestselling Lone Wolf adventure books and novels. He is the
creator and editor of the original Lone Wolf Club Newsletters that were published between 1985–
96.
Gary Chalk is the main illustrator of the early Lone Wolf Club Newsletters.
Fan material included herein such as illustrations, fiction and quizzes are © the respective authors
and artists.
This project would have been impossible without the helpful contributions of:
David Davis – allowing scanned copies to be made of his near-complete collection of Lone
Wolf Club Newsletters.
Paul Haskell – providing better quality scans of artwork taken from the books.
Internet Edition published by Project Aon. This edition is intended to reflect the complete text of
the original version. Changes made, such as to correct incorrect or inconsistent spelling,
punctuation and grammar have not been noted.
Distribution of this Internet Edition is restricted under the terms of the Project Aon License.
Effort has been made to display the information as close to the originals as possible. Although this
has not been possible for all things—for example, the actual fonts used—the result is as close to the
originals as they could be.
Scans of the original newsletters have been edited so that many faded illustrations have been
coloured consistently black. In some instances, this has resulted in a higher quality output than
found in the originals.

Dear Member,
Welcome to the LONE WOLF CLUB, and to this the
first Club Newsletter. You will find enclosed a sheet of
six address labels which will enable you to receive
regular LONE WOLF CLUB Newsletters as soon as
they are released. Simply fill in your name and address
on the labels, and send us in the same number of
stamps and labels. (Do not stick the stamps onto the
labels, though; keep them separate.)
Send them to:
THE LONE WOLF CLUB,
SPARROW BOOKS,
17–21 CONWAY STREET,
LONDON,
W1P 6JD
You will receive the number of Newsletters equivalent
to the number of labels and stamps that you return.
FUTURE RELEASES
Also, just few hints for Club Members on what to watch out for in
Book 3:
Now that you know the prizes, here are the clues to the
