I recently came into possession of three copies of The Voice of the Coast, a newsletter published on the Coastside in 1972.  I’m uploading Volume 1 Number 1 today and later I’ll upload Numbers 3 and 16.

TVotC reads like an predecessor of Coastsider. It’s interesting how little the issues have changed in thirty years. It has a strong emphasis on El Granada, where it was published, but it aimed to cover the Coastside.

If you can tell us any stories about The Voice of the Coast and the people who created it, please post them as comments on this story. If you have any more issues stowed away somewhere, I’d like to scan them and put them online.
