Over the years of scouring magazines and newsletters for mention of any books, other magazines, and any kind of print resource about the Timex/Sinclair computers, I’ve developed a fairly extensive list. It’s quite likely that some of the items on this page are vaporware: they were announce but never came out. Others are just really rare.

If you have any of these, please reach out and let me know. I’d love to scan them and make them available to everyone.
