No. 9 / Winter 1993

After the last issue, I was wanting to take just a little summer break fully intending to post Scarlet Street #9 for the Labor Day weekend in September. I was well on my way to accomplishing my goal when I had to drop everything and do battle with my mother's health insurance company. It has left me completely baffled at how American 'health care' does business and no matter how you work it out, the innocent beneficiary is the one that gets stuck with the bill.

Back on track, however, to enjoy the October Holiday Season with SS#9 and its now-up-to 104 page issue (including front and back covers).

I have not given credit to any site that I've lifted the supplemental images from, however, there were some used here that came from petercushingappreciationsociety.com .
