FARBER FARE
Following the great success of Farber Day, which raised loadsamoney to
aid in our goal of bringing Gary over to Novacon, we still have some
unique Farber Day Products available in strictly limited quantities!
POCTSARCDS
4 limited edition postcards, with illustrations by D West and Dave
Mooring, featuring fine fannish jokes, slander and innuendo. These are
available for 50p each, or UKP1.50 for the set. For an even more
exclusive option, buy one pre-addressed to Gary and send it to him!
Still only 50p if you do the hard work, or for a pound, you can buy
one, fill it in, give it back to us, and we’ll stamp it and send it to
Gary ourselves.
FARBER DOLLARS
Your chance to buy the special Farber Day currency, at the low, low
exchange rate of 50p for one Farber dollar. Lovingly hand-crafted by
Steve Davies’ laser printer; mutilating US currency in this way is a
capital offence in the lower forty-eight. Spot the subtle changes from
your common or garden greenback.
TINY FANZINES
Not one, not two but twelve different fanzines were distributed at
Farber Day! And now, you can collect all twelve! All different titles,
so buying a complete set qualifies you to vote in the Novas even if
you’ve never read a fanzine before in your life! The available
fanzines feature fan writing by Gary himself, Pam Wells, and
gratuitous editorial comment by Alison Scott, and the titles are:
. | Gary Farber’s Cakewalk Never Quite Arriving Farba Farber’s Transatlantic Tarts Bitches Abroad Balloons Over Brooklyn Playfarber Lan’s Blowtorch Runcible Obsessions 5: Gary Farber Tesseract The Last Dangerous Farbers |
WEEKLY WORLD FARBER
The Farber Day official newsletter, produced in appalling conditions
in the garden with the Superfluous Technology and some very long
wires. Copies can be yours for only 50p.
HOW TO GET THESE THINGS BY POST
We’ll do all of these by post, provided that you send us an stamped,
self addressed envelope (SAE) or near equivalent (a few international
reply coupons should do) so that we can get the stuff back to you.
Alternatively, if you live a long way away, or SAE’s are too much
hassle, you might like to consider our Special Bonus Offer (special
bonus because it’s even more expensive)
A complete set of all of the above, posted airmail to Anywhere In the
World, for only UKP10 or $15. Cheques in pounds or dollars only, ta;
pounds made payable to Pam Wells, dollars made payable to Roger
Robinson.
All of the above are available from:
Pam Wells, First Floor Flat, 14 Prittlewell Square, Southend-on-Sea, Essex, SS1 1DW, United Kingdom
TOMBOLA
Yes, Farber Day may have come and gone, but the Tombola lives on! If
you send us UKP1 and an SAE, we’ll draw 3 tombola tickets for you. If
any of them are winners (and there are loads of winners left!) we’ll
send you the prize in the SAE, unless you win something huge, in which
case we’ll get in touch and ask what you want us to do with it. And if
you don’t win anything, we’ll still send you a Farber dollar (while
stocks remain). Your chance to experience the true spirit of Farber
Day without ever leaving the comfort of your armchair! For this once
in a lifetime experience, you need only send your money to:
Bridget Hardcastle, 13 Lindfield Gardens, Hampstead, London NW3, United Kingdom
