    Turnabout: A Magazine of Transvestitism
    (Special Collections & Archives, University of Waterloo Libraries, 2024-06-04) Cassels, Catherine
    SCA is pleased to announce that we have acquired five issues of the ground-breaking periodical Turnabout: A Magazine of Transvestitism. First published in the United States in June 1963, Turnabout is one of the oldest publications written by and about people who identified as transvestites or cross-dressers. The periodical, which ran until 1969, featured articles, poetry, stories, letters, and photographs that offer a snapshot of what life was like for non-gender-conforming people living in the 1960s. In an era of heightened discrimination, Turnabout helped to foster a sense of community for trans people by providing a space where readers could see their own experiences, feelings, and struggles mirrored on the pages.
