Cultural Magazine "La Loteria"
The cultural magazine, Loteria, is a regular publication of the National Lottery and contains articles on history, notable people, literature, and art. Most of the issues in this collection, spanning from 1941 to the present, have been digitized. Two sources are available: one from the Loteria publishers and one from the National Library of Panama. The collections are not identical.
