As with many Television Shows, Home and Away
issues free Fan Cards to you, the fans. These are small laminate
photographs of the individual members of the cast, with their
name on. The cards have changed a lot in recent years. Fan
cards (or publicity cards) are used by the cast when replying
to fan letters. The original Home and Away fan cards were 6x4
inch black and white pictures printed on glossy card stock,
such as these shown here.
In the early nineties, the character names were added to
the fan cards, as shown below.
In 1998, the fan cards were changed completely. They are
now A5 size (approx. 8x6 inches), printed in full colour and
on a thinner type of card. Most of the pictures are in portrait
position but some are landscape.
Here are some group cast photos from the
nineties. They were black and white and printed on glossy card
like the individual fan cards, but are 8x6 size.
