Thank you -- Fanac Webmaster.

| Comments: | What a great site! I’d heard about the FANAC Project, of course, but wasn’t aware of this site until now. Found the entry on my old outfit, the Nashville Science Fiction Club, and spent an hour reading snd reminiscing about our adventures (mostly true). Wish I’d known about this while I was writing my novel Sanctuary; it might have saved me a little time. I’m bookmarking this for future reference; it will be useful if and when I write about SF history again, as seems likely. Nice work ... bravo! — Allen |

| Comments: | I went to your list for the 1944 Fanzines and am impressed by how many there are! Thank you! In the Fall 1944 Startling Stories (which I read at https://archive.org/details/StartlingStoriesV11N02Fall1944/ ) there is a column by "Sergeant Saturn" with reviews of fan publications (page 109). Some of these are on your list, but some are not. I don't know which, if any, are eligible for the Retro Hugo (or even worthy of nomination). I imagine there may be other prozines from 1944 that have similar fanzine reviews. Worth checking out. |

| Comments: | An additional benefit, perhaps "side effect", of browing Fanac is inspiring one to retrieve, and re-read, physical fanzines received decades in the past. Had that experience today with 1960s issues of Yandro, which I had inventoried but not read in many years. No wonder we got hooked on sf fandom. |

| Comments: | I enjoyed seeing the bookmark from Litterio Farsaci. This sort of
ephemera has always fascinated me, in part because the odds of such
items surviving are so small. One of the most interesting things about
buying old books is that every so often an equally old bookmark turns
up. And now here is one I don't even have to buy a book to
see.... Thanks, JEAB |

| Comments: | Appreciating and enjoying additions to Classic Fan Publications,
especially VOID. Page (or two) at a time presentation is quite different
from the pdf download method at efanzines.com. Page at a time
presentation does encourage staying on the site and actually reading the
zines, rather than downloading issues for possible reading at a later
time.
On the page for Fanscient, I was surprised by the description of most
issues as being letterpress. I have a couple of those issues of
Fanscient. The reproduction method looks like offset to me. In any case,
I am pleased to be able to read the issues that did not wind up in my
fanzine accumulation. Thank you for carrying on these many years. |

As we get more things scanned, we can probably archive them on your site, as well (or you can add a link). If you have information about Utah conventions that I haven't found (I've only poked about a tiny bit on your amazing site), I'd love to know about it! |

| Comments: | Hello, I'm the stepdaughter of Mickey Rhodes . Mickey was the only father I knew from just past the age of 3 years old until my adulthood. I don't know what art work he did for you as I was a child at the time, but I would like to share something of my memories of Mickey with you if you don't mind, as his painting feels so very personal to me. My mother would often call Mickey Michelangelo, because he had such a great love for his art, and also because he was so eccentric. Mickey would use my cats as neck warmers while he painted, as it was so cold in his studio in the winter.My beloved pets trusted Mickey completely, they would sleep peacefully around his neck purring loudly.It was a symbiotic relationship, both cat and artist stayed warm. While I can't fully share all of Mickey's quirks here, suffice it to say people rarely forgot my eccentric stepfather. I am very happy that his work is also being remembered, and valued, Sincerely, L.B. |

| Comments: | Sadly you have lost a valuable & dear asset in the recent passing of Anne E. Trembley (Sattler): artist, FANAC fan, bibliophile, original character, wife, mother and an exceptionally fine-hearted woman. Anne died in Brownsville, OR on Tuesday August 11th, 2009. She heroically fought breast & then brain cancer. She will be missed by so very many people. She sure loved those Sci-Fi conventions. |

Analog and F&SF pretty much the whole time, but various issues and years of If, Galaxy, Omni, Asimov's, etc. We still have @ 98% of the magazines. Now retired, we have to consider physical space limits and the fact that these mags, much as we've enjoyed them, aren't doing us or anyone else any good. We really don't want to sell them or throw them away. We'd like them to end up in the hands of someone or something (preferably nonprofit) who will get some use and pleasure from them. Can you suggest any organizations that would possibly accept these magazines free? Thanks. - Jay Lounsbury |

| Comments: | Art Rapp was my Dad; I'm just amazed how much of his Spacewarp zine has migrated to the internet! It is a pleasant experience, to find that much of the effort my parents put into their passion for Sci-Fi has survived into the digital age. Just the fact that I can sit here on the living room sofa in a farmhouse miles from the nearest town, years after they are gone, and pluck something they mimeoed in 1950 out of the thin air on an electronic tablet sitting on my lap seems like the type of improbable futuristic alien technology they might only have dreamed and written of way back then. Back when I was a kid, I just assumed that ours was the only house that had an odor of mimeo ink, piles of long blue wax paper stencils, and stacks of paper drying around the living room every month. Thanks for taking the time to preserve their life's work! |

| Comments: | Can you believe I just got around to looking you guys up. I am a fan
although I was more active 30 years or more ago. I went to the North
AmeriCon in, wooo, late 1970s in Louisville, KY. Wrote some reviews back
then for a fanzine, man what was it, by editor Geis, maybe just the
Science Fiction Review magazine? Amongst my hobbies now: ham
radio/KB9GIE, photography, short story writing, nothing published yet in
paper or for pay but a story at
http://www.studebakerdriversclub.com/studestories.asp, my first writing
effort written a couple of years ago. I listen to the MUFON Net at
3.777 MHZ frequently although i am not a UFO believer. UFOs and SF were
strongly related in my mind as a young man. Otherwise, mythology is a
good explanation for about everything. We just like to sit around the
camp TV, errrr, campfire and tell stories, I think. I've known Barry
Childs for many years here at Indianapolis, IN. He and his wife are
both huge in fandom and Filk singing. Anyhow, I look forward to
checking out the site in the future and especially in the idea that ham
radio and SF are related in some strong manner. Thanks, Larry W.

Of particular interest to the Los Angeles Science Fiction group, the new
Yahoo! group for friends and fans of Sci Fi writer, Arthur Louis Joquel
II, (aka Alojo) is now open for your participation.
Congratulations to the founders and owners of this most wonderful
website at FANAC, The Fan History Project. I would like to hear from you
regarding all fans and friends of the late Arthur Joquel (1919-1974). I
am one of his fans and students. He was the main inspiration for a very
small nonprofit peace organization, The PeaceClinic, established in 2001
in Oceanside, CA. Arthur was a pacifist and I am trying to keep alive
the vision he had for world peace.
~ Chloe Joquel, chloe_joquel@yahoo.com &
peaceclinic@att.net
Founder of The PeaceClinic
Moderator for the arthur_joquel Yahoo! email

current project. Including all the links I can post. The modern day
composer refuses to die. The life of a repo man is intense. We're all

no longer earthly bound.
Judy will alway live in my heart with thanksgiving for her life and

being present when she was born - it was love at first sight, and never
changed. I shall forever treasure the memories of her.
Judy will continue to shine like a rare and lovely star that she was,
ever adding a beautiful light to this world. |

| Comments: | My wife and I drove Judy's mother to the hospital the night of her
birth. Like Judy, I, too, was attracted to Science Fiction early on. I
began with "Amazing Stories," the oft-spoken of but seldom
actually seen novels that appeared in the 1930s and 1940s. Much, much
later I became an avid Star Trek viewer; and in 1986 I had the pleasure
of employing Bill Shatner to reprise his Captain James T. Kirk role in a
commercial video written and filmed to present the Nova Metropolitan
District (a USAF Consolidated Space Operations Center logistical support
development located in Colorado Springs) for which I won an American
Advertising Federation first prize / commercial video division. But, I
digress, like Judy — and many of you, too — I am a writer; none in a
fiction genre, however, science or otherwise. I have two books in the
U.S. Library of Congress: The Control of Police Discretion (1964) and
Feudalism in Colonial America: A Survey, 1999. My wife and I hope to have
the pleasure of visiting Judy's parents in West Palm Beach in the near
future. |

was quite an experience for me, as I got to meet folks like Robert
Heinlein, Lester Del Rey, Isaac Asimov, Frederick Pohl, E.E. 'Doc'
Smith, Harlan Ellison and many others. If anyone out there still has a
copy of the souvenier photo book they put out afterwards, I would be

| Comments: | Hi,
This is a great site. Thanks for all the work. I got a laugh out of the
pictures of me as The Dark King at NoreasCon 3 in 89.
I've been out of fandom for a few years due to an extended illness and
the development of our new kind of theme park with a strong fannish
oriented theme and really missed a lot of my old friends, acquaintences,
annoyances, and other panel participants.
I also would like to mention that we should all work to wipe out cancer
in our lifetime, we lose far too many good people far too soon. It can
be done, it must be done.
(This is why we used to do the Monty-Pie-A-Thon at cons, to raise funds
for cancer research. Thanks to all who pied me.) |

| Comments: | As I mentioned in a separate e-mail to Mr. Siclari, upon learning of the
death of Julius Schwartz and recognizing several names of individuals
mentioned in his obit, and the fact that he lived in the Bronx (where my
father was born and raised) I did a Web search for the first time under
my father's name, ALLEN GLASSER. He died in 1971. He was a great sci-fi
fan, an early advocate of science fiction being recognized as literature
(I will check at home for a short article I may have that he wrote on
this subject, in case you are interested let me know), and very much
involved, he told me and my brother, in something called "sci-fi
fanzines." I was so honored to find his article on the Scienceers
included on your site as being "exceptionally good or of
importance." He was a vain man who so wanted to be a famous writer
himself but it eluded him. To know that you have recognized his writing
this way.... I idolize Ray Bradbury, who lives in my community; I
suddenly feel closer to him, as if by some long thin strange thread we
are now somehow connected, because my father knew men he knew, and my
father championed the works of such writers as Bradbury. Thank you again
for including my father, for rescuing him--even in death--from the
obscurity he so feared he'd be mired in, and for giving voice to so many
other pioneering devotees like him. |

| Comments: | Greetings Coordinator Siclari, Webmaster Weaver & all the FanacFanFolk,
I just surfed into your "Ed Wood with beard??? ????" photo. You can
remove the question marks (unless they are an inside joke). I'm 100% +
that the photo is not Edward D. Wood Jr. ¶ Another bit of trivial
observation on my part. Though I have the greatest respect for Tim
Burton (But, as we all know, "Ed Wood" is packed with non-historical
scenes – as are most Hollywood bios) and Paul Marco (who said it was
Lugosi - and he ‘was' there), the 'Octopus wrestling match', at the end
of “Bride of the Monster/Atom,” is NOT Bela Lugosi but rather his stand
in. Inspect Lugosi's stuntman's make-up. The scene where Lobo is pushed
over the medical table is the best for viewing. It just ain't Lugosi
shakin' that 8opus. ¶ Well, anywho, if you would like a free laugh -

| Comments: | Anyone who might want to contact me (far from likely!) change that .com
to .net & you *should* get thru. i'm tired of all the PornBotSPAM
resulting from signing GuestBooks... Mainly i'm just expressing my *gratefulness* for this availability of "Classic" fanzines on line -- & especially to people like Judy Bemis for all that time so magnanimously spent typing them *in*! (i've recently typped Thomas Carlyle's essay, "Novalis" onto the computer to eventually put up on COSMIC WIND -- & realize how much effort *that* required -- plus the proof-reading, afterwards -- all of which makes me more grateful than i might've *thot* to have been, otherwise.) When i run *across* a few old fanzines in my collection, here -- *if* i can find the time -- i'll type them in for your archives & send them along by way of a bit more substantial "Thank You" for everything you're making accessible for old *fan*addicts like yrs. truly. The first science fiction magazine i bought (new) was the May 1957 issue of IMAGINATIVE TALES. That & IMAGINATION became my *immediate* favorites (at age 15, 16) -- &, of course, Robert Bloch's fanzine review column was running in Madge -- which made me aware of the existence of fandom years before i was able to afford to try any zines out. Going backwards in time (picking up back issues of sf magazines) 1952 became my *next* "favorite year" amongst the prozines (with the Jan. thru March issues of STARTLING STORIES & the Jan. 1952 issue of PLANET STORIES) -- & back issues of IMAGINATION -- 1952 probably being its *best* year... And of course *there* Mari Wolf's "Fandora's Box" was running fanzine reviews of *that* particular vintage. Many an issue of many a fanzine that she reviewed i certainly *longed* to have the opportunity to *read* them (those half a dozen to a dozen years later when i acquired that particular back issue of Madge) -- & then i discover -- on this WebSite -- 3 issues of RHODOMAGNETIC DIGEST & an issue of COSMAG actually available to *be* read -- from 1952! -- not to mention zines going back into the 40's & 30's like Julius Swartz's FANTASY MAGAZINE! i find myself with the opportunity to read things i never *dreamed* i'd have an opportunity to read! This is *truly* a splendid thing to be happening! It would be super-keen, of course, if *every* issue of Schwartz's FANTASY MAGAZINE were to eventually go up on-line! i've *also* longed, for years, for the opportunity to read an issue or so of Bill Hamling's fanzine (late 30's? early 40's?) -- before he began writing for Ziff-Davis & eventually got onto the editorial staff. It was *definitely* interesting to read a piece by Sam Moskowitz written at about age 15 in HELIOS #1 -- & comments on Jim Blish at that time! *Now* if we could only cross the Alternities into alternate timelines & pull in some of those issues of MADGE & TALES & such that were published *after* those prozines ceased publication in our particular timeline! i've *acquired* a few of them, in my dreams, but was unable to "bring them across" into the Waking World! Thank you *again*! ~~just an old fan who's had no association with the fanzine scene for about 2 & a half decades... i guess, sorta like X. J. Kennedy (Joe Kennedy when he was a letterhack in the old PLANET STORIES, etc. -- back when Marion Zimmer was a fan) my Major Interests have gone elsewhere; but i maintain a fondness for the old enthusiasms, too -- & am at the age where i go Backwards In Time, reading-wise, frequently... It's just that re-reading the Gnostic scriptures, reading minor works by Lord Byron... trying to get thru all of Sri Aurobindo... picking up on John Burroughs, Loren Eiseley & William Irwin Thompson (& suchlike) have become far more interesting than the next fan*politics & some of that old pulp*krap (or wasting time with L. Ron Hubbard's last big spurt of appears-to-be-dreck). But, how could i pass up the latest Somtow Sucharitkul or *not* plunge into Peter Hamilton -- or deny myself the sheer *joy* of rereading Poul Anderson, H. P. Lovecraft, Clark Ashton Smith, Thomas Burnett Swann, C. L. Moore, H. Rider Haggard, Dwight V. Swain -- or resist checking into Charles de Lint & Robert Holdstock! ~~norman e. masters |

bad, considering I've been pretty much gafiated from fanzine fandom for

What got me looking around here was cleaning out piles of mundane belongings from the library/garage earlier today, and recovering access to the boxes of old fanzines that have been unreachable for years. I -may- actually be able to get them organized (and maybe even --gasp!-- shelved!) again later this year. |

| Comments: | I am a candidate for the John Campbell Award for best new writer, and
I'm offering my story "The Vampire Shortstop" to anyone who is
interested in reading it. The story won the top prize in the latest
Writers of the Future contest and appeared in Writers of the Future Vol.
XV. Please pass along this offer to the rest of the club. Anyone who is
interested can e-mail me for a copy, or check out my website for more
information about me. Other Campbell candidates are listed at www.sff.net/campbell-awards Any supporting or attending member of this year's or last year's Worldcon is eligible to nominate for the Campbells. I urge everyone to participate, even if you aren't voting for me, because turnout is usually low for this award. Thanks for your consideration, and I hope to see you in Chicago. Best wishes, Scott Nicholson |

| Comments: | No suggestions at this time, and I am too busy today to dip into what appears to be a cornucopia of wonderfulness. But I wonder if anybody knows if there is a listing, anywhere, of current APAs? I would like to update any listings of LASFAPA (which I am again running). Also, does anybody know of any general interest APA which would be amenable to merging with another general interest APA? Like all APAs, LASFAPA is smaller than it used to be (although we are still healthy and I get the disties out on time), so there is a possiblity that combining a couple of smallish APAs into a larger unit can keep this fannish endeavour going longer. |

| Comments: | It seems that on this site Fandom didn't exist until the 1980's. I
joined the Mythopoeic Society in 1969, having been a Tolkien Society
Member in 1966 only in correspondence. From the MythSoc, was then
introduced to Los Angeles Science Fiction Society, Comic book fandom,
Horror Fandom, the SCA (Creative Anachronism. I am unhappy to not be
able to find many fanzines, genzines, peoples names, after all these
years. Having traveled for 22 years, and now on Internet, it would have
been nice to see some mention ==anything, of LASFS. I find few names,
Lee Gold is one. Did everything and everyone die or Is everyone in
Fandom now pretending to be under 30? Annoying. Keep adding things. But do keep it in mind that some of us are out here searching the internet for signs of old life. |

I found this page when I did an altavista search on the word 'Bundalohn' - which was the name of the Melbourne mansion built and inhabited by one of the people I am writing a doctoral thesis about, Henry Gyles Turner (1831-1920). So now I am intrigued as to how a SF fanzine came to be called the 'Bundalohn Quarterly', which is why I am writing to ask: where is the WCSFA archive, and is it possible for me to visit it? Or, if you can tell me anything about the 'Bundalohn quarterly', I would appreciate it. Thanks very much, Lesley Sutherland |

| Comments: | I used to be in an SF club with the initials "SFSFS" too. Mine was the "State of Franklin Science Fiction Society". That was back around 1980. Franklin was a state that never quite made it, around the time of the Revolutionary War. Most of it's territory was in East Tennessee, where the club was. Just a bit of fan history trivia for you. |

| Comments: | Great Great and just damned great.. but do you realise how BIG this could get...? I'm put in mind of the INTERNET MOVIE DATABASE with a similar startup philosophy. Not a bad way to go. Another diehard longtime GENIE member (and yes they actually DO have a beta minimally functional webaccess page... sortof) and I can see a LOT of depth and spread to this site in order to really cover all this.. just zine preservation alone... whew... keep em flying. |

| Referred by: | I just stumbled upon the link to these fanhistory archives while browsing the Timesbinders web-page. |
| Comments: | I'm a writer (currently central/south regional director of SFWA), and I've been involved with fandom for over twenty years. I live in Kansas City, Mo. I'm going to be checking out more of the on-line fanhistory sites in the next few weeks. I've got a nice cache of phannish photos from the 40s and 50s, passed on to me by Bob Tucker, along with complete sets of his fanzines, LE ZOMBIE and THE BLOOMINGTON NEWSLETTER. I've been occassionally posting excerpts from LE ZOMBIE in my personal topic on Genie, but Genie is not part of the internet, and I'd like to get some of that stuff out to a wider audience. Anyway, enough for now, I've enjoyed what I've seen of your web-page so far. |

| Comments: | Damned good job! Stick with it for as long as you can maintain the psyche. What the hell...this is better than real life. Would love to hear from any crotchity BNFs or WNFs from my day. (Don't you guys have a life yet?) On the other hand, at my age, I'd love to hear from anybody. I saved all my fanzines...anybody remember PILIKIA, pubbed by Chuck Devine? I didn't think so. We called it PILL. Only took me 35 years to figure out that the title is a Hawaiian word for 'trouble', which Chuck was in, he suicided within a year. Very nice boy, darn shame. Keep it up. Bad memories are good for you. If you believe that, I've got this used printer I'd like to..... |

| Comments: | Haven't completely read through all the topics links, but enjoyed what I've read so far. I'll be back a few times to finish up. (I'm a Timebinder -- finally joined a few months ago after many discussions about fannish history with my old friends Dick & Leah Zeldes Smith.) |

| Comments: | Thanks for making this material available. It's great fun to see a different 'fandom' than exists now. I enjoy reading about the days when cons featured something more interesting than an autograph from "the third Klingon on the right". Hope to find out more about the legendary feuds of years past.
