Notes
- Nelson Hahne did not actually appear on the cover of the December 2007 Linking Ring, but rather an illustration drawn using his style appears on the cover of that issue. The "Cover Story" within that issue, however, discusses the life and contributions of Mr. Hahne to the magic world.
- Kristen Johnson followed in the footsteps of her mother Sunny Johnson, who appeared on the cover in March 2002.
