- Summary:
- Weekly periodical for gay, lesbian, bisexual, and trans people in the Philadelphia area, including news, events, resources, reviews, advertisements, and columns/articles.
- "SAVE THIS ISSUE! It is the first weekly edition of newspaper for Philadelphia's Gay Community. We hope to fill several needs for individuals and groups within the Gay Liberation Movement, and for anyone who may be interested. First, we will provide a weekly calendar. You can support this effort by sending in announcements of your meeting or event to our post office box or by calling the Gay Switchboard. [...] Secondly, we hope to become a forum for gay news on the local scene. [...] We can inform our readers of important developments affecting gays. We can endorse (or condemn) candidates for office. We can review plays and movies, and report on special activities of interest to gay people, both within and without the movement. We also hope to have a column of letters from our readers, and in this way start some dialogue that will get us all thinking about matters which affect our lives as gay people, and to give everyone an opportunity to react to The Gayzette's editorial position on various topics."--Page 1 of issue no. 1.
