Upcoming FANAC FanHistory Zoom: January 11, 2025
Out of the Ghetto and into the University: Science Fiction Fandom University Collections, with Phoenix Alexander (University of California, Riverside), Peter Balestrieri (University of Iowa), and Susan Graham (University of Maryland, Baltimore County)
Time: 2PM EST, 11 AM PST, 7PM GMT London, and 6AM AEDT (sorry) Sunday, Jan 12 Melbourne
Description: Somewhere along the way, science fiction graduated from being perceived as uninteresting escapist literature to being worthy of appreciation. Inevitably, academia followed. Today, a number of universities have science fiction archives with collections of fanzines, photos and artifacts. How did these collections get started and what do they contain? Are they open for public access? Are they continuing to grow? What are they collecting? What are the new challenges that they face?

Fanzines added: Unless otherwise noted, scans are by Joe Siclari.

New software! We've moved onto new software for the fanzine archive, written by the indefatigable Mark Olson. You'll notice a few new features cropping up on the index pages for new and updated fanzines. The editor's name will now be linked to their Fancyclopedia article, the titles with complete runs are marked as complete on their index page, and any related club will be listed. The Classic List will be updated more frequently, and there's more error checking in the software, so hopefully, it will catch some of my finger-fumbled dates.

There's a remaining problem with the statistics on the alpha and chron list. We know about and are working on it. But, if you spot anything awry, please send a note to fanac@fanac.org. Hooray for Mark! This code is enormously easier to use than the 25 year old REXX code it replaces.

Robin Johnson, Traveling Fan from Oz (Pt 2 of 2), with Perry Middlemiss and Leigh Edmonds
Description: FANAC History Zoom: October 2024: This enjoyable session continues with more of the fannish history of Robin Johnson, not only one of the best known Australian fans, but also one of the best loved. In Part 2 of this 2 part session, Robin continues with more tales of Aussiecon (1975), the first Australian worldcon. As chairman of Aussiecon, Robin shares his memories including the massive crowding caused by injudicious placement of the only 3 computer arcade games around, an unfortunate and expensive attempt to publicize a Hugo novel candidate, and a sadly lost slide carousel.

In addition to Aussiecon, you’ll hear about the Tasmanian convention, Thylacon, named after the extinct marsupial, the thylacine, better known as the Tasmanian wolf. In 2010, Robin was Fan Guest of Honor at Aussiecon 4, the 4th Australian World Science Fiction Convention. After those tales, and a few traveler’s tales too, the session concludes with a slideshow of Australian fan photographs and a little Q&A.

Many thanks to master interviewer and Aussiecon 3 chair, Perry Middlemiss, and to Leigh Edmonds, who served as Robin's auxiliary memory in this session.

Title: Robin Johnson, Traveling Fan from Oz (Pt 1 of 2), with Perry Middlemiss and Leigh Edmonds
Description: This enjoyable session explores the fannish history of Robin Johnson, not only one of the best known Australian fans, but also one of the best loved...Beginning with his birth in Hobart to his chairmanship of Australia's first World Science Fiction Conventions (1975), in Part 1 of this 2 part session, Robin regales us with stories of his fannish career. From his early days in fandom ("crouched around the feet of John Campbell while he smoked and pontificated"), to other well known Australian fans ("living with John Bangsund is a very difficult job"), and the enormity of bidding for an Australian Worldcon ("no one else in Australia had even been to a Worldcon at the time", Robin makes this history come alive...There are tales of Antifan, and stories of Harlan Ellison, Ursula Le Guin, Susan Wood and Mike Glicksohn, the Magic Pudding Club and how the Aussiecon Art show was saved by judicious negotiation.

It's great fun, and interviewer Perry Middlemiss does a masterful job of teasing out the details. With the help of Leigh Edmonds, serving as Robin's auxiliary memory, the session is a delightful tour through the making of the first Australian Worldcon.

YouTube: The Secret Origins of Plokta (Pt 1 of 2) - Steve Davies, Sue Mason, Alison Scott and Mike Scott.
Link:https://youtu.be/VqJZSaRSC8E 
This fannish group (aka the Plokta Cabal) burst on the scene in May 1996 with the fanzine Plokta, which went on to receive two Best Fanzine Hugos, 2 Nova Awards for Best Fanzine, and Hugo nominations each year from 1999 to 2008. They are energetic, quirky and very, very funny. They are writers, artists, con runners, Worldcon bidders and fan fund winners... In part 1 (of 2), Steve Davies, Sue Mason, Alison Scott and Mike Scott, recount how they came into fandom and found each other. They tell entertaining stories of their fannish lives, from convention newsletters to the celebrated Plokta to the glories of providing a unique in-joke badge to each member of a convention. You'll learn what a SMURF is, hear strong opinions about staples, and find out just what voodoo board spam can be.... Plokta was one of the first web fanzines, and came together differently than most other fanzines. The group dynamics and interactions that created it are on full display in this recording. It's great fun to watch, and it's very, very clear that it was great fun to live.

July 20, 2024 FANAC expects to have a scanning station at the Glasgow worldcon, so if you have fanzines that are not on the site, bring them and we'll scan them during the convention. We do have to remove the staples to scan them, and if the zines are perfect bound we may not be able to do it at con. Note that we don't put fanzines up without permission, so if we don't already have the permission, they won't go on line quickly. Stop by and get your FanHistory ribbon too! Hope to see you there.

Fanzines Added: Unless otherwise noted, all scans are by Joe Siclari.
--The Amateur Effer. This is the OO of APA-F, and it now has an index page and 4 1964 issues listed. I had the first complete mailing up under 1 Issue-Maybe More to Come  as "The Amateur Effer 1", and heard from quite a few people that the placement was odd, since it was an entire APA mailing. I have started now to break the individual zines out and list them separately, as they should be. I'll leave that first one there for a while until all the zines are up elsewhere. There'll be a proper APA listing for it too.

--View from under a 60 Watt Lamp, Dave Locke. Added 4 issues of this new-to-us APAzine from the early 80s. Issue 3, starting on pg 2 has an entertaining description of the other APA members for (presumably) a new member. Sample: "Roy Tackett is 156 years old and lost his fingers in a geisha house in Japan. Types by striking the typewriter with his foot. Actually, Harlan Ellison is right: Roy looks like a Kansas City hitman. Created the expression "Ed Cox Doodle Here," and actually has the personality that Buck Coulson carries around as a shtick. Lives on a sand dune near Albuquerque, and says arresting things." After reading these, now I want to join FLAP circa 1982.

YouTube: The Women Fen Don t See w/Claire Brialey, Kate Heffner & Leah Zeldes Smith
Link for part 1: https://youtu.be/F5Oc9Cf-Dq4 
Part 1: Women did not magically appear in fandom with the advent of Star Trek, but have been part of science fiction fandom since the earliest days. They're faneds, and convention chairs, writers and artists, club fans and costumers. Sometimes, they're all of the above. Our impressive panelists (see bios on the bottom) Claire Brialey, Kate Heffner and Leah Zeldes Smith talk about why early female fans have received less credit than they deserved, or been overlooked entirely, and describe the contributions of a number of them....In this recording (Mar 2024, part 1 of 2), our panelists talk about how this research began, and why women that were cranking the mimeos, writing fanzine articles and going to conventions were not even regarded as fans. Early fan historians didn t correct this impression, reflecting the attitudes of society and ignoring women s contributions to fandom, especially married women. In this recording, you ll learn about what fans did say about women in the community, the radical hoax of Lee Hoffman , and Miss Science Fiction 1949 (and the Fake Geek Girl response that ensued).

Woman discussed in part 1 include Jean Bogart, Pam Bulmer, Daphne Buckmaster, Marion Eadie, Helen Finn, Nancy Kemp, Trudy Kuslan, Lois Miles, Frances Swisher, and Jane Tucker. There s a lot of information, a little hero worship and a dive into those hard-to-research women whose fanac was not primarily in fanzines.

Link for Part 2: https://youtu.be/pBEL0x5v_O8  Woman discussed here include Ina Shorrock, Bobbie Gray, and Ethel Lindsay. There s more about Femizine, the impact that early female fans can have on younger generations today, and whether women fans today will experience the same sorts of erasure. At about 32 minutes in, Q&A from the audience begins, with the difficulty of researching women fans, especially those that change their names multiple times, and anecdotes of Nan Gerding, Lynette Mills, Fuzzy Pink Niven, and Noreen Shaw. Maggie Thompson contributes a wonderful anecdote about her mother SF author Betsy Curtis and Tony Boucher. The recording concludes with a welcome discussion of how women have been treated in fandom in recent years.

We received materials from Lenny Bailes, Sandra Bond, Nic Farey, John Wesley Hardin, A.C. Kyle, Murray Moore, and Nigel Rowe.

Title: Tropicon 8 (1989)-Part 3 of 3 - Filk with Julia Ecklar, Orion's Belt and Linda Melnick
Description: Julia Ecklar was the special filk guest at Tropicon 8, held in Dania, Florida, in 1989. This recording captures the third part of an open filk at the convention, and includes 8 songs (of which Julia sings four, with one incomplete) and one poem. The performers on this recording in order of appearance: Julia Ecklar, Chuck Phillips, Dina Pearlman, Francine Mullen, Doug Wu, and Linda Melnick. The video includes much of the conversation between songs, the laughter and the occasional disagreement of a 1980s convention filk session. This video includes several songs by Orion's Belt, which consisted of Dina Pearlman, Francine Mullen and Doug Wu.

Tropicon was a small convention, and you will see some of the author guests in the filk. That's Tropicon 8 GoH Lynn Abbey sitting next to C.J. Cherryh for example, and Joe Green sitting back against the wall. Note that the last song is incomplete - the recording chops off in the middle. Many thanks to Eli Goldberg for sound editing on this recording and for the details in the song listing.

Title: Wrong Turns on the Wallaby Track: Australian SF Fandom 1960-75, Pt1- Leigh Edmonds, Perry Middlemiss
Description: Once again historian Leigh Edmonds and Perry Middlemiss take us to the heart of Australian fan history. This February 2024 zoom session begins with the events of 1960, and the origins of modern Australian fandom in Melbourne. Illustrated with photos and publications, Leigh tells the story of early fannish meetings, of Somerset Place, and of the competing visions of Australian fandom, from sercon to fannish. In this part 1, he covers how Science Fiction Review got started, the seminal influence of John Foyster, John Bangsund and Lee Harding, and the reason the Ditmar Awards are so named. (He also tells you what they are not named.) There s the first APA in Australia, why it was started and what it became, the importance of comics fans in Australian fan history and Gelaticon. And Leigh conveys the reason why fans were so intent on getting together - In this group, when you happen to say something about science fiction, people don t look at you like you re crazy.
The zoom session is great fun and well worth watching. Leigh Edmonds is an Australian historian, and a very long-time science fiction fan. His history of science fiction fandom in Australia, Proud and Lonely; a history of science fiction fandom in Australia 1936-1975 part 1, will be published in 2024 by Norstrilia Press. Perry Middlemiss is a fanwriter, editor and podcaster as well as a former Worldcon chair.

Part 2: Link: https://youtu.be/utAcMFSVDfo 
Description: Part 2 continues the story of Australian fan history. Historian Leigh Edmonds and Perry Middlemiss begin with a discussion of the cultural environment (and censorship) in Australia of the period, the raid on John Foyster s home and the intersection of real politics with fandom. Especially interesting is the conversation about the campaign to bring the Worldcon to Australia, from changes needed to the WSFS constitution, to the origins of DUFF, and to the bidding publicity Australian fans courted with Anti-Fan (staring Paul Stevens as Anti-Fan). You ll hear about the beginnings of the Australian SF writing community, Ursula Le Guin s connection with the Aussiecon Writer s Workshop, and the emerging uniquely Australian convention tradition. The discussion wraps up with anecdotes about the Worldcon itself (including the Tucker fund), and its sizeable impact on local fandom. Finally, there s Q&A with the audience.

Corrections and Clarifications:
--1 Issue-Maybe More to Come. Thanks to Sandra Bond for her observation that 1849 is probably not the correct date on Walt Coslet's Gr-runk 6. Fixed now. Thanks, Sandra!
--Fanews, Walt Dunkelberger and Earl Kay. Thanks to Bee Ostrowsky for pointing out that one of the issues was incomplete. It is so marked now. Thanks, Bee!
--Fanthologies. Rearranged so the Best of Susan Wood (Kaufman, Oct 82) is here properly. It was in the wrong directory and while it was accessible from Fanthologies, it didn't show up in the alpha listing. Fixed now. Thanks to Joe for finding (or rather not finding) it.
--Motley, Jim Benford. Thanks to Sandra Bond for finding a bad link for Motley 1. Fixed now. Thanks, Sandra.
--Odyssey 2010. Thanks to Mark Plummer for pointing out that we had omitted several of the GoHs. Fixed now. Thanks, Mark!

February 14, 2024
Audio: Added Terry Pratchett's GoH speech from Noreascon 4. It's very, very, funny. The recording is about 1 hr, 10 minutes long. It does not include all the Q&A. Audio provided by Steven Silver. Thanks, Steven!

That last is an N3F publication. From looking at Stan's Weekly Express 27, I couldn't figure out who Stan was, and apparently neither could the LoCs. Apparently Stan would leave "hints" but by issue 27, no one had penetrated his disguise.

--Sercon's Bane, F.M. Busby. Added #43 (Feb 70). I miss Buz - the description under the title and below the blank cover reads "The above illustration depicts an albino nudist in a snowbank, throwing snowballs at a retreating polar bear while eating vanilla ice cream. Scattered on the snow is about a ream of typing paper, spilled when the nudist was startled by the polar bear. Out of sight just over the hill are all the Funny Parts."
--Sigma Octantis, John Mussells. Added 4 issues of this new-to-us title from the 50s. Contributors include Gary Labowitz, Jerry Page, Kent Moomaw (in issue 5), and Dan Adkins. Fanzines provided for the scanning by Jack Butterworth. Thanks, Jack!

Reminder: Join us this weekend for our FanHistory zoom (send a note to fanac@fanac.org to get the link): Science Fiction Fandom in Australia 1960-1975, with Leigh Edmonds and Perry Middlemiss.
Date and Time: February 17, 2024 (Feb 18 in Australia) - 7PM EST, 4PM PST, 11 AM Feb 18 Melbourne AEDT
Leigh's description: Like a phoenix, Australian fandom was rekindled from the ashes of its own demise in the early 1960s. In 1960 there had been one small club, by the early 1970s there were clubs in most states, many fanzines, multiple conventions and a bustling fan community. By 1975 this fannish community had created such a presence on the world stage that it hosted a World SF Convention, published world class fanzines and many of its fans had international reputations. What had happened to bring such a change to fandom in the land of the Wallaby Track. Tune in to find out, mate.

YouTube: https://youtu.be/ksZvaRBWrqk  - An Interview with Joseph L. Green
Description: Joe Green s interest in science fiction began in the 1940s, before he knew there was even a name for this kind of literature. His introduction to science fiction fandom came in the early 1950s, and first published fiction in the 1960s. Add to that his long career in the military and civilian space programs, and you have a trajectory that is the envy of a many a science fiction reader.

In this fascinating interview, Joe Green talks about his life and career, and his views on science fiction and fandom after more than 70 years in the SF community. With a professional career spanning more than 60 years, (his last published work was in 2023), in this discussion Joe starts with his introduction to fandom, and his early fanzine contributions, his first professional sales and the struggle to balance fandom, professional writing and a growing family. With a decades-long career revolving around space, he tells anecdotes ranging from the Cuban missile crisis of the 60s to one of his most important accomplishments - editor and principal writer of the NASA report on the Challenger disaster. Here he talks about that difficult but necessary work.

Starting in the days of the manned Apollo launches, the Greens hosted spectacular and now legendary launch parties. Joe couldn t help but share his joy at one of the finest achievements of mankind. In this session, there are great anecdotes about well-known writers and fans, including Poul Anderson, Sam Moskowitz, Arthur C. Clarke and A.E. Van Vogt, and Joe s unorthodox advice about getting entr e to NASA launches. It s a delight to hear, and makes you wish you had been there...One story we didn t get to was what happened when Joe Green heard filk music for the first time. Joe was delighted, especially with the space-oriented pieces, and not too long after he heard the Minus Ten and Counting recording, one of those songs was played as the wake-up music for the astronauts in space....Many thanks to Joe s daughter, Rose-Marie Lillian for her technical support, enabling Joe to participate in the Zoom.

PDF conversions and issue updates: Fantasy Amateur. Replaced the remaining 5 Lean-Tos and Annexes that we have online with searchable PDFs.

Corrections and Clarifications:
--1980s One Shotrs. Added "Another Fan's Poison" from Curt Phillips (Jan 86). This had been in 1 Issue-Maybe More to Come, until we learned it was really a one-shot. Thanks, Curt, for letting us know. If we can get the one-shots of the one-so-far list, it will be a lot more manageable.

https://youtu.be/q4u67cMdVek  - APAs Everywhere (pt 2)
Description: Since the first FAPA mailing in 1937, Amateur Press Associations (APAs) have been a part of fannish life. APAs are everywhere our panelists include a former Worldcon chair, a professional science fiction writer, a TAFF and multi-FAAn award winner, and a member of the Kipling Society Council. They are all long-time fans...In this wonderful FanHistory Zoom panel, our speakers, all long-time participants (in multiple different APAs), speak about their experiences with APA life. During this 2-part recording, you ll hear their personal fannish origin stories and APA experiences, along with a wealth of fascinating commentary on the nature and purpose of APAs. From fanac in a corner to intentional community , this video provides thoughtful, insightful discussion on why APAs have been a mainstay of science fiction fandom.

Of particular interest are the discussions of standing waves of cultural issues that run through our APAs and the ways that science fiction fandom has dealt with cultural challenges. Fandom had notable failures (and successes) dealing with social issues long before the general culture dealt with them...Of course, it s not all social commentary. You ll hear the story of APAs used in divorce proceedings, APAs which may have been created to bedevil particular individuals, and the APA which didn t live up to its banner of the 13 nastiest bastards in fandom . You ll learn why APAs thrive, even in this era of instant online gratification. Other topics: privacy issues, digital preservation of APAs, a soft toy APA, APAs you wouldn t join, Langdon charts, and of course, audience Q&A. There s a list of APAs at https://fancyclopedia.org/Category:APA. If your science fiction APA is not there, please write to fancyclopedia@fanac.org and tell us about it.

FANAC Newsletter, Edie Stern and Joe Siclari. We've just sent out a newsletter (#22) on FANAC FanHistory project activities. Fanzines, conventions and APA shenanigans. If you don't receive it directly, you can join the mailing list by sending me a note at fanac.org, or by filling in the the yellow highlighted form on the homepage.

Fanzines: Unless otherwise noted, all scans are by Joe Siclari.
--1940s One Shots. Added 2 odd items: Creative Film Association Presents "A Survey of German Cinema" Program 6 - Metropolis (Sep 47), and Dear Fapaians (Walt Dunkelberger, Apr 48).
--1960s One Shots. Added 3 item: A Letter from Jean Linard (Jean Linard, Aug 62), Logarithmic V1#1 (Bob Silverberg, Feb 61), and We Live in a Fanzine Factory (Al Lewis and Ron Ellik, Jun 62). Logarithmic has some reminiscences from Bob on his early days in FAPA, as a young teen.
--1990s One Shots. Added 1 item: Silvercon Memories - The Adventures of Trufans in Glitter City (Arnie Katz, Apr 94). This is about Silvercon III.
Detours, Russ Chauvenet. Added 1 issue and created an index page for this FAPAzine, relocating the issue that had been in 1 Issue-Maybe More to Come.
--The Monday Evening Ghost, Bob Jennings. Added 3 issues: #9-11 (Feb-?? 61). It turns out that the Monday Evening Ghost and Fadaway are the same zine, having experienced a title change after issue #12. I'm therefore combining the index page that we had for Monday Evening Ghost with the page for Fadawy. Contributors include Mike Deckinger, Bob Farnham, Bill Plott, Art Rapp, and Ray Nelson.
--Ibid, Ben Indick. In a stunningly fast move, we've added 1 issue and created an index page for this Exotic Order of Dagon zine, relocating the issue that had been in 1 Issue-Maybe More to Come. That was, what, 3 days stuck in 1-So-Far? The "new" issue,, #45, has an in memorium article on George Wetzel.
--Ignatz, Nancy Share aka Nancy Rapp. In a 2nd stunningly fast move, we've added 1 issue and created an index page for this SAPSzine too, relocating the issue that had been in 1 Issue-Maybe More to Come. Also after 3 days.

PDF conversions and issue updates: Fantasy Review, Walter Gillings. Replaced the remaining 4 jpg issues with searchable PDFs. These zines are from 1949-50.


Corrections and Clarifications:
--Kteic Magazine, Bill Rotsler. Bill Burns says that all the efanzines Rotsler zines were scanned by Robert Lichtman. Thanks, Bill. I'll add that to the credits.
--References. I've been referring to the British fanzine bibliography on Rob Hansen's website as "Rob's bibilography". Rob says: ...referring to the British Fanzine Bibliography as *my* bibliography is incorrect. Yes, Vince Clarke and I extended it, but the initial bibliography was put together by Peter Roberts in the 1970s as a number of thin booklets. The British Fanzine Bibliography on my website is just an online version of that.". Thanks, Rob. I'll try to get it right going forward.
--Wahrscheinlichkeitsrechnung Wahrscheinlichkeitsrechnung Index page, Redd Boggs - Thanks to Geri Sullivan for pointing out that the envelope to Lee Hoffman is really of 1983 vintage. Fixed. Thanks, Geri!

December 6, 2023
REMINDER: Our next Fan History Zoom session is scheduled for next Saturday at 2PM Eastern. If you're not on our frequent zoomer list and would like to join, drop a note to fanac@fanac.org.
APAs Everywhere - Fred Lerner, Christina Lake, Amy Thomson and Tom Whitmore - December 9, 2023 - 2PM EST, 11AM PST and 7PM London GMT
Since the first FAPA mailing in 1937, APAs have been a part of fannish life. There are topic specific apas, local apas, general interest apas, convention committee apas, letter substitutes and doubtless many more. Our panelists, all long time APA members, talk about their experiences with APA life: Why did you join the APA(s)? Did you APA live up to your expectations and why? Tell us about the APAs you've been part of, and tell us what makes them unique. (You can tell us about APAs you weren't part of too!) Talk about the way the members of the APA related to each other, and the nature of that community. Compare the experience of an online community like LiveJournal or Facebook with your APA experience. The Cult was called the "13 Nastiest Bastards in Fandom". Was it? What feels different about womens' APAs? Are APAs now obsolete? Would you join a new APA today?

Fanzines: Unless otherwise noted, all scans are by Joe Siclari.
--1 Issue - Maybe More to Come. Added 6 titles: Ibid 12 (Ben Indick, Nov 75), Ignatz 16 (Nancy Share, Jan 58), King Biscuit Time (Robert Lichtman, Aug 69), Limbo 2 (Dave Rike, May 60), Notebook 2 (Steve Stiles, 66) and Scatalog 1 (Art Wilson, Dec 60). Ibid 12 was for an APA called "The Esoteric Order of Dagon", and contains a first publication of some self-criticism written by Lovecraft in 1929. The Esoteric Order of Dagon is devoted to scholarship related to H.P. Lovecraft and the works of Weird Tales school of writers. Notebook is combined with the last issue of C.C. Rider. Scanning for Scatalog 1 is courtesy of Rob Hansen. Thanks, Rob!
--Black Bike, Leigh Edmonds. Added #8 (Jul 72).
--Dallascon Bulletin, Tom Reamy. Added #4-5 (Win 69 - Spr 70).
--Descant, Norm and Gina Clarke. Added #4 (Feb 61).
--Fan Polls, Awards and Surveys. Added the 2nd Tucker Fan Survey from 1954. Scan by Alan Stewart. Thanks, Alan.
--ForLo Kon, Kenneth Bonnell. Added 1 issue and created an index page for this 40s zine, relocating the issue that had been in 1 Issue-Maybe More to Come.
--Lark, Bill Danner. Added #486 (Aug 53).
--Le Moindre, Boyd Roaeburn. Added 2 issues: #21 (Nov 60) and #27 (Aug 62).
--Neolithic, Ruth Berman. Added 5 more issues: #7-9 (Jun-Aug 60) and 11-12 (Oct-Nov 60).
--Opuntia, Dale Speirs. Added the most recent issue. Thanks, Dale.
--Outsiders, Wrai Ballard. Added 1 issue and created an index page for this SAPSzine, relocating the issue that had been in 1 Issue-Maybe More to Come.
--Phenotype, Richard Eney. Added 3 issues and created an index page for this OMPAzine, relocating the issue that had been in 1 Issue-Maybe More to Come. The three issues added include a complete reprint of Laney's "Ah! Sweet Idiocy!" from 1948.
--Wahrscheinlichkeitsrechnung, Redd Boggs. Added 2 of this title, completing the run. Boggs did these for FAPA 100 and for FAPA 200, and the next issue was planned for 2012. I've also tucked in a curiosity - the envelope of a letter he wrote to Lee Hoffman with a very curious way of identifying her address. It did arrive successfully, since we found the envelope among LeeH's papers. Very silly.

Corrections and Clarifications:
--1 Issue - Maybe More to Come. Thanks to Sam McDonald for determining a publication date for Arnie Katz's "WC 1". Thanks, Sam!
--IPSO, Ted Forsyth, George Locke. Rob Hansen points out that IPSO was definitely an APA, with an OO named IPSO FACTO. From his Bibliography: "IPSO was a bound apa-mailing with contributions taking the title of that mailing's set topic..." For that reason, Rob doesn't list individual contributions separately, and neither did we. Thanks, Rob. I appreciate the correction.

December 3, 2023
Fanzines: Unless otherwise noted, all scans are by Joe Siclari.
--1 Issue - Maybe More to Come. Added 4 titles: Science Fiction Times-Chronicle V19#101 (Meade and Penny Frierson), WC 1 (Arnold Katz, 1960s-ish), Wildhack 1 (Dave Locke, Nov 85) and You Knew the Job Was Dangerous When You Took It #1 (Rich Small, May 72). WC1 is what looks like the first pub of the N3F Welcomittee.
--1940s One Shots. Added 5 items: Fantascience Fan 1 (Van Splawn, Jan 46), Pneumo 1 (Charles Burbee, Mar 48), A Premonition of Disaster (Howard Miller, Feb 48), The Rating of Rocket Fuels (Feb 48) and A Visit from Graham (Rick Sneary, Feb 48). If you're seeing an early 1948 theme here, you're right.
--Critical Wave, Steve Green and Martin Tudor. Added a brief Critical Wave update apparently done for the 1988 Corflu that announces a US edition. Scan by Rich Lynch. Thanks, Rich.
--Fanthologies. Add "Dancing and Joking", which I believe is a Westercon 57 publication of John Hertz's fanwriting. This may also end up under conpubs.
--Ipso Facto, Ted Forsyth. Added 3 issues of this title, one coedited with George Locke. Is it an APA, or is it a genzine? It's a themed APA, so rather than try to break it into pieces to put online, I've uploaded it (as what I think is) whole. Contributors/participants include Gordon Eklund, Fred Patten, Ethel Lindsay, Bruce Pelz, Ted White, Marion Zimmer Bradley, Robert Lichtman, John Berry and lots of others. The themes for these three issues are Time Travel, Heinlein, and Sex and science fiction.
--Lamppost, E. Frank Parker. Added issues 2-3 (Feb-Apr 44), completing the run of this FIDOzine. Scans provided by Rob Hansen. Thanks, Rob!
--MT Void, Evelyn and Mark Leeper. Added the 3/18 issue. Thanks, Evelyn and Mark.
--Neolithic, Ruth Berman. Added 5 issues: #1 (Dec 59), #3-6 (Feb-May 60).
--Salud, Elinor Busby. Added #27 (Jul 67). From Elinor's response to Helen Wesson - "It's quite sensible for a married couple to have two Fapa memberships if they feel that there is any danger that they might split up."
--Sambo, Sam Martinez. Added 1 issue and created an index page for this zine, relocating the issue that had been in 1 Issue-Maybe More to Come.
--Sercon's Bane, F.M. Busby - Added #21 (Aug 64).

PDF conversions and issue updates: This time they're all by Mark Olson, unless otherwise noted.

--Fantasy Rotator. Added 3 issues, some fractional: FR 74.3333495 aka The Cult Shall Rise Again 1 (Alan Lewis, Feb 60), FR 169-2 aka Dusenberg Splendor (George Scithers, 66), FR309 aka Along the Causey Road 5 (Frank Denton, Oct 73). I can't quite figure the month on #309, but based on the activity report, I think it must be 1966.
--Sigbo, Jerry DeMuth. Added 1 issue and created an index page for this 50s zine, relocating the issue that had been in 1 Issue-Maybe More to Come. Warning - #6 has many pages that are faded to illegibility. There are others that are absolutely readable.
--Southern Fandom Confederation Bulletin, R.B. Cleary. Added V11#3 (Nov 23).
--TAFF. Added "Taffluorescence! first issue" from Sandra Bond, the newsletter of the Trans-Atlantic Fan Fund. PDF provided by Sandra Bond. Thanks, Sandra!

Fanzines: Unless otherwise noted, all scans are by Joe Siclari.
--1980s One Shots. Added 2 items: Fish Helmet complete (Rob Hansen, Jul 88), and North with the Sun (Bruce Pelsz, Jun 88). Fish Helmet complete is a collection of Rob's contributions to Frank's APA.
--Ansible, Dave Langford. Added #435-436 (Oct-Nov 23). Thanks, Dave.

--Fan Spectator, Ron Maddox. Added an index page and issue #2 (Feb 47), and relocated the first issue which had been in 1940s One Shots. Pavlat-Evans only recorded the first issue, so I listed it as a one shot. They were wrong. Now, the question is whether or not there are any more.
--Fantasy News (New Series), Ken Beale. Added 2 issues of this newszine: #1 and #4, both Jun 63.
--MT Void, Evelyn and Mark Leeper. Added the 11/24/23 issue. Thanks, Evelyn and Mark.
--Perryscope, Perry Middlemiss. Added the November 23 issue of Perry's perzine. Thanks, Perry.
--Portland Science-Fantasy Society News Bulletin, Don Day. Added 3 issues of this new-to-us newszine from the late 40s. The zines are uncredited, but Pavlat-Evans says they are primarily edited by Don Day.
--Review Section, Ron Holmes. Added 3 issues of this FIDO zine: #4 (Feb 43), 6 (May 43), and 8 (Aug 43). Scans by Rob Hansen. Thanks, Rob!

--1970s One Shots. Added 3: Motor City Madness (Brian Earl Brown, Aug 78), The Poke Salad Days Chronicle (Meade Frierson III, Sep 73) and Yellow HooHah (Rich Small, 74). The dating on Motor City Madness required a little digging. I was able to match up the dates in the paragraph on Autoclave with the dates of Autoclave 3 as listed in Fancyclopedia. Add to that the mention in the zine that the con was last month, and hooray. We have a date.
--Disturbing Element, Bill Rotsler. Added 1 issue (completing the run) and created an index page for this 1948 FAPAzine, relocating the issue that had been in 1 Issue-Maybe More to Come.

--MT Void, Evelyn and Mark Leeper. Added the 11/17/23 issue. Thanks, Evelyn and Mark.
--Phanteur, Donald Thompson. Added the Winter 48 issue, which appears to be an unnumbered issue between 4 and 5. It appeared in the FAPA 42 mailing, and the Fantasy Amateur for that mailing shows an issue of Phanteur with what appears to be the right number of pages (our copy has the number obscured). Dating something winter always makes it hard to figure out if it's the end of one year or the beginning of the next.
--Shoreline, Jeanne Gomoll. Added 5 more issues of Jeanne's apazine, and a letterzine: #7-11 (79-81). Issue #7 is better known as "What Spare Time 2", a letter substitute that Jeanne ran through several APAs. "Secretary No More" is also "What Spare Time 1" and was run through with Shoreline (and Obsession). Zines provided for scanning by Jeanne Gomoll. Thanks, Jeanne.

November 15, 2023 Zoom schedule- We've added a January zoom session to the schedule. On January 20th, we'll be doing an interview with Joe Green. If you don't know Joe Green, this is an opportunity to learn about his amazing arc through fandom, prodom and the space program. A fan in the 50s, a professional science fiction writer with his first stories appearing in the early 60s, and later a NASA spokesman, specializing in educating the public about the space program. Host of many a legendary launch party, Joe has lived the dream of many a young science fiction fan. Join us in January and learn more.


YouTube - https://youtu.be/bjB_gKIeYC0  - Frankenstein...a not so gory version-Delta Science Fiction Film Group (1963)
This 1963 fannish production of Frankenstein a not so gory version from the Delta SF Film Group, starts with a panorama across a mad scientist s lab featuring Entrails of Aldiss and bheer . It s an entertaining and complete story in less than 4 minutes, starring British fans of the day. You ll be (un)amazed at the special effects, the pathos of the story and its shocking ending. It's good fun, and Delta group went on to produce many more short films.

Bill Burns, who provided this and other Delta Films tells us The individual films date from 1963 to 1970, and were made on 8mm silent film to which a magnetic stripe was later added and the sound dubbed on. They were then shown mercilessly at club meetings and Eastercons, and suffered accordingly. For more about the Delta SF Film Group, see the Fancyclopedia article and see the text of Bill s talk at Manunicon (2016 Eastercon) at https://efanzines.com/Alien/indexd.htm. Many thanks to Bill Burns for providing the video, and the list of actors and crew that worked on the Delta Group films.

Corrections and Clarifications: Thanks to FANAC's Joe and Mark for finding many small, irritating errors in dating fanzines, spelling them correctly, and citing the correct APA mailing. Fixed as we go, but they don't always get public credit, so thanks guys.

November 4, 2023
APA Mailings. Mark has added a column to the individual APA pages that lists the number of pages we have of the mailing. If you click through on FAPA, for instance, you'll see that for the 100th mailing, Aug 1962, OE Charles Burbee, we had 23 zines for a total of 636 pages. That's our largest scanned mailing. Very cool. Thanks, Mark!

Fanzines: Unless otherwise noted, all scans are by Joe Siclari.

--Bulletin of the British Interplanetary Society. Added 10 issues of this "related zine" from the 1930s. Joe says: "It might seem that the Bulletin of the British Interplanetary Society is a bit out of our perview but the early issues have some resemblance to fanzines. Scientifiction is mentioned and the editors names are somewhat familiar. The Bulletin can easily be seen with (although hopefully more accurate than) such fanzines as Space Magazine and others. Thanks to David Ritter, we have some of these to pass along to you. We will not try to make great numbers of them available. These issues were from the collection of Alistair Durie." For example, V2#8 is edited by Arthur C. Clarke (whose name is more than somewhat familiar), and has an article by William Temple. Scans by David Ritter. Many thanks, David!
--De Prodfundis, Heath Row. Added #590-1, the Oct and Nov 23 issues. Thanks, Heath.
--MT Void, Evelyn and Mark Leeper. Added the 11/3 issue. Thanks, Evelyn and Mark.

Title: Evolution of Art(ists) (Pt 1 of 2): Grant Canfield, Tim Kirk, Jim Shull, and Dan Steffan
Description: Fillos, illos, cartoons and the disturbing depictions of many a fannish nightmare have long made fanzines and convention publications more interesting. Multi-talented fans have run the gamut from writing to editing to fan artist. This distinguished group of award-winning artists represent the cream of 60s/70s fan artists, uniquely qualified to have this discussion.
In part 1 of this 2-part session, you ll hear their origin stories , their influences, how they found science fiction fandom, and what they perceive as the unique benefits of fandom to young artists. You ll find out why artists should avoid hecto, and torturous tales of justifying margins by hand. There are intriguing insights into adjusting one s art to the reproduction medium, and how fandom helped people along, especially towards professional careers. Larger than life figures make their appearance, including several stories of Bill Rotsler.
There s plenty more, including their views on Carl Barks, why Dan started Lizard Inn , Jim s take on the slippery slope to having a fanzine too big to staple without an industrial stapler, Tim on his deep desire to tell stories, and Grant s opinion of Starling .

Part 2: https://youtu.be/B9nRkWKi6E0 
In part 2 of this 2-part session, the fan art discussion continues, with more on professional careers as well. The conversation ranges from Tolkien s house to Harlan Ellison's house, from The Last Dangerous Visions to Bill Gibson, from Harlan Ellison stories to BNFs that had an impact. There are more Rotsler stories too. You ll hear about silent jam sessions, Esoteric Fan Art Tales , and the impact that conventions had on artists who worked in isolation. A real treat is the slideshow of samples of our panelists art, with their live comments on what each piece represents.
Q&A starts about 45 minutes into the video, with comments as well as questions, including Ted White s discussion of the impact of Mondrian s work on modern magazine design. Lest you believe that fanzines are a thing of the past, the video wraps up with a plug for an upcoming paper fanzine by faned Geri Sullivan.

Fillos, illos, cartoons and the disturbing depictions of many a fannish nightmare have long made fanzines and convention publications more interesting. Multi-talented fans have run the gamut from writing, to editing to convention running and fan artist. Is being a fan artist different now than it was decades ago, and if so how? What is the golden age of fan art? Is fan art a path to becoming a professional artist, or is it just for fun? Has fan art essentially disappeared with the adoption of the internet? Will AI help or hurt?

Corrections and Clarifications: Thanks to Izabeau Legendre for reporting a "404" error on Dave Kyle's "A Warning". In this case, it had been moved to the 1930s One Shots.

Please everybody, continue to report the 404 errors. It really helps.

YouTube: https://youtu.be/3PBqOdmqMsE  Boston in the 60, Part 2 - Tony Lewis, Leslie Turek, and Mike Ward, moderated by Mark Olson.
Part 2 of the panel on Boston science fandom in the 1960s, continues with the true story of how the Boston in 67 Worldcon bid began, and the surprising origin of Locus , now the magazine of the science fiction, fantasy, and horror field . There are anecdotes of the late, lamented House of Roy, why NESFANs are expected to receive club permission to marry, and the origin of the Skylark Award. You ll even find out about the Silent and Silly Committees of NESFA, the pun fine, and what is likely the only retelling of Goldilocks to be written in Fortran. Also pastrami ice cream.

Many in the audience could easily have been panelists. The last half of the recording covers the Q&A, eliciting stories on the Boston Save Star Trek demonstration, Baskin Robbins expeditions and the Boston penchant for rules, rules, rules.

Panelists Tony Lewis, Leslie Turek and Mike Ward are uniquely suited to discuss the 60s. Tony joined the MIT Science Fiction Society (MITSFS) in 1957, served as "Onseck" and "Librarian", is a founder of NESFA, and chaired the first Boston Worldcon - Noreascon 1 (1971). Leslie Turek discovered fandom in the mid 60s, is a founding member of NESFA, chair of Boskone 6 (1969), editor of several MITSFS fanzines, and chair of the second Boston Worldcon - Noreascon 2 (1980). Mike Ward, MITSFS "Skinner", founding member of NESFA, and editor of several MITSFS fanzines, was involved with the Boston in 67 bid and the MITSFS index. (And moderator Mark Olson chaired the third Boston Worldcon, Noreascon 3 (1989).)

YouTube: https://youtu.be/A5JZhHm_A5k  - Boston in the 60s, with Tony Lewis, Leslie Turek and Mike Ward, moderated by Mark Olson
Boston in the 60s was a generative hotbed of fannish activities, with long lasting consequences. The first modern Boskone was held in 1965 by the Boston Science Fiction Society, as part of its bidding strategy for a Boston Worldcon. NESFA began in 1967, and the first Boston Worldcon was held in 1971.

Panelists Tony Lewis, Leslie Turek and Mike Ward are uniquely suited to discuss that period. Tony joined the MIT Science Fiction Society (MITSFS) in 1957, served as "Onseck" and "Librarian", is a founder of NESFA, and chaired the first Boston Worldcon - Noreascon 1 (1971). Leslie Turek discovered fandom in the mid 60s, is a founding member of NESFA, chair of Boskone 6 (1969), editor of several MITSFS fanzines, and chair of the second Boston Worldcon - Noreascon 2 (1980). Mike Ward, MITSFS "Skinner", founding member of NESFA, and editor of several MITSFS fanzines, was involved with the Boston in 67 bid and the MITSFS index. (And moderator Mark Olson chaired the third Boston Worldcon, Noreascon 3 (1989).)

In Part 1 of this discussion, you'll feel what fandom was like in those days, and how our panelists came to be part of it. There are anecdotes of the surprising way NESFA was funded, MIT's Building 9 (where the department of Magic is housed) and the day that Hugo Gernsback came to MITSFS. Isaac Asimov comes into it, as does the "The MIT Science Fiction Society's Index to the S-F Magazines", and the story of fandom's "pioneer in copyright". There are reminiscences of the big name fans of the area and the era, and the creative ways that Boston's intrepid fans helped create a community that is still vibrant today.

Boston in the 60s, with Tony Lewis, Leslie Turek and Mike Ward, moderated by Mark Olson
Boston in the 60s was a generative hotbed of fannish activities, with long lasting consequences. The first modern Boskone was held in 1965 by the Boston Science Fiction Society, as part of its bidding strategy for Boston in 67. NESFA began in 1967, and the first Boston Worldcon was held in 1971. MIT provided a ready source of new fans, and they made themselves heard in fanzines, indexes, clubs and conventions (and invented the micro-filk). What was Boston fandom like in the 60s? How was it influenced by MIT? Who were the driving forces and BNFs? What were the impacts of the failed 67 bid? What made Boston unique?

YouTube: https://youtu.be/Zla9J0Q9juE  - Minicon 23 (1988) Barbie s Inferno by Jeanne Gomoll, Fanzine Reading
Minicon 23 was held April 1-3, 1988. On Saturday afternoon, David Emerson hosted a program of fanzine readings, including Jeanne Gomoll s reading of her hysterical short piece, Barbie s Inferno . This 18 minute audio recording, enhanced with images, is a delightful visit both to that program in 1988, and to the subject matter Jeanne Gomoll s childhood experiences with Barbie...Jeanne is an outstanding writer, as well as an excellent reader. This short recording provides an empathetic glimpse into what many fans have experienced -- what it s like to grow up in a family where you and your parents have very different ideas of who you should be. Plus you learn about waxers. Thanks to Geri Sullivan for recording, preserving, digitizing and providing this program.

Originally published in Harlot (edited by Anne-Laurie Logan and Avedon Carol, 1983), a newly revised version of Barbie s Inferno is contained in Pretending, the first volume of Jeanne s two volume memoir, Pretending and Becoming. 2023 (to be released).

July 27, 2023
A quick update, just two days after the previous one because Verizon is coming to upgrade our network tomorrow, and I'm not sure when we will be back to normal. So color me a natural pessimist. Hopefully, we'll be back up and running by tomorrow afternoon. FANAC.org is hosted professionally, so no disruptions to anyone else.

We've updated the Core List  as of 7/15. What's been updated is not the fanzine titles, but rather the % complete. We're almost at 84%. For those of you that are valiantly scanning for us (or would like to), if you have anything marked in red in the last column, we'd really like to get a scan. The red ones are the zines with the lowest percentage of issues on line. Of course, we'd be happy to have scans of any issues of the titles in the grid that are not already online.

YouTube: https://youtu.be/zFonwW3M5M4  - Castle of Terrors Delta Science Fiction Film Group (1964)
This fannish production from Harry Nadler and the Delta SF Film Group gives us a slapstick parody of horror movies, replete with well known British fans of the day. There are angry villagers, damsels in distress, and scary monsters, as well as less well-known horror tropes like food fights in this 20 minute amateur extravaganza. In Castle of Terrors you can feel just how much fun Delta Group was having (and get a clear sense of their love for slapstick)...Bill Burns, who provided this and other Delta Films tells us The individual films date from 1963 to 1970, and were made on 8mm silent film to which a magnetic stripe was later added and the sound dubbed on. They were then shown mercilessly at club meetings and Eastercons, and suffered accordingly. For more about the Delta SF Film Group, see the Fancyclopedia article and see the text of Bill s talk at Manunicon (2016 Eastercon) at https://efanzines.com/Alien/indexd.htm

YouTube: https://youtu.be/crw8QMkyYqQ  Description: At the 2023 Eastercon (Conversation), Guest of Honor Niall Harrison, and fellow Third Row fans John Coxon, Emily January and Abigail Nussbaum sat down for a discussion on the future of fandom (circa 2004). Moderated by Meg MacDonald, the panel hilariously tells the story of Third Row Fandom, named and brought into being accidentally by Greg Pickersgill during a Future of Fandom panel at the 2004 Eastercon. Themselves dubbed the future of fandom by Greg, the fans seated in the third row at that panel have made good on the title, pulling others into their orbit and having an outsized influence on science fiction and science fiction fandom over the last 20 years...Illustrated with powerpoint slides to map out their impact, this fascinating panel tells the story of a cohort of young fans maturing into movers and shakers in the field, as writers, reviewers, editors, award judges and convention organizers...Many thanks to Conversation 2023 for providing this recording, and particularly to Alison Scott for her assistance.

APA Mailings: You'll start to notice that the APA Mailing columns on fanzine index pages are becoming populated with links to the specific mailing where the zine appeared. Hooray for Mark Olson for providing the software to automatically generate the links! Now, there are three things you will see:
1. Ideal - the link takes you to the mailing page, and the zine you started with shows up in the list of zines that were in the mailing. Yay.
2. OK - the link takes you to the mailing page, but the zine you started with is not listed. Please be patient - the next time we regenerate the list of APA mailings, it will show up properly.
3. Slightly annoying - the link is not found. Please be patient - this fanzine was the first one we have that belongs in that mailing. The next time we generate the APA mailings, it will be there.
Many thanks to Mark Olson for the software.


YouTube: https://youtu.be/08Q6oxAkoI8  - Researching Science Fiction FanHistory (Pt2 of 2)- Rob Hansen, Andy Hooper, Mark Olson & Joe Siclari
Description: In this Part 2 video, discussion ranges from academia to our panelists' investigative techniques. When the primary resources are fanzines, researchers deal with first person accounts where "accuracy is not their primary virtue", although how different that is from other histories is questionable. Unsurprisingly, panelists share stories and findings, more sometimes with each other than the audience. Spoiler alert: John W. Campbell's mother was not an identical twin!...Particularly interesting is a segment on the place of anecdote in fan history, and for those interested in learning more, there's a "starter list" of readings. Audience Q&A forms the last portion of the recording, and with many of the audience experts in their own right, the questions (and answers) are first-rate.

Fan History References. Added "Science Fiction in East Germany, 1949-1982" by Richard Jasinski. The author writes from Poland.

--Boggs - Other Publications, Redd Boggs. Added 6 items in a new index page for miscellaneous Redd Boggs pubs. "Scintillas From World's End" (Aug 82) is 10 pages of his notebook jottings over the years. Sample: "39. I love to hear myself talk. I'm working on trying to find something to say.", "19. We have had to handicap women with high heels, flimsy stockings, slippery undergarments, dangling purses, and long flying hair else we could never keep up.". Warning: he starts by asserting that he was a male chauvinist long before the term was invented.
--Chapter Play, Bob Tucker. Added #3 (Feb 57).
--DUFF. Added 4 items: Altered Brands 1-3 (Janice Murray, 98-99), and the 1998 DUFF Ballot. These four were scanned by Rich Lynch. Thanks, Rich.

There was one issue in Trimble-Other Publications  and that's now been moved.
--Musicals and Plays. Added "Fanotchka" by Andy Hooper. Fanotchka is a parody of Ernst Lubitsch 1939 film "Ninotchka". PDF supplied by Lenny Bailes. Thanks, Lenny.
--SFPA One Shots. Added "Watching the Candle Burn" by Lon Atkins (May 78). Scan by Mark Olson.
--TNFF, George Phillies and Jon Swartz. Added the April issue of the The National Fantasy Fan. Thanks, George.

YouTube: https://youtu.be/GNcLOqdnG5U; Researching Science Fiction FanHistory (Pt1 of 2)- Rob Hansen, Andy Hooper, Mark Olson & Joe Siclari
Description: The first fan history was written by Jack Speer in 1939, and the most recent is the crowd-sourced Fancyclopedia.org, updated as of yesterday. The fan historians on our panel each focus in a very different way on fan history...Rob Hansen, author of "Then: Science Fiction Fandom in the UK", brings a UK centered perspective to global fandom, and Andy Hooper has deeply researched the first World Science Fiction convention, both publishing in the traditional way. Mark Olson and Joe Siclari are part of the FANAC Fan History project - Mark is chief editor of the crowd-sourced online Fancyclopedia.org, and Joe is the chairman behind the Fan History project, and in particular the driving force behind FANACs digital archive (FANAC.org)...In this Part 1 video, the panelists talk about how they became interested in fandom and fan history in particular, and the different approaches they have taken to recording and interpreting fan history. You'll hear about the creation of the first timeline of UK fan history, the nude figure with a dagger in each hand, and the tenuous but possible connection of fandom to the Zodiac killer...Perhaps most engrossing are the stories of contacts from non-fans, relatives of fans long gone. Some of these have no real understanding of what fandom was and is, but are seeking to learn about their relatives. There's even an anecdote about Warren Fitzgerald, the African-American fan who was the founding president of the Scienceers, the first first regularly meeting sf fan club which was started in 1929.

YouTube: Feminism in 1970s/80s Fandom: Janice Bogstad, Jeanne Gomoll, and Lucy Huntzinger - Fandom in the 70s/80s saw real influence from people with a feminist perspective, from the creation of Wiscon to fanzines like Janus and Rude Bitch, and to raising awareness of the reality women experienced. What were the beginnings? How did Wiscon get started? Was fandom following popular culture or leading it?
https://youtu.be/0huTr49EoQg  - Part 1 - Panelists Janice Bogstad and Jeanne Gomoll tell us about the creation of Janus, Wiscon and the Madison nexus of feminist thought in 70s fandom, and Lucy Huntzinger brings us into the 80s with the lamentably short-run Rude Bitch, and her other experiences in fandom as a feminist. Moderated by Edie Stern, FANAC.org webmaster, this intriguing panel reveals the unusual origins of Janus (and how the editor found out it was a fanzine!), the academic background brought to the discussions of women in science fiction, and some of the factors that made Madison the hotbed of feminist thought in fandom. These personal histories trace the growth of feminist discussion in broader fandom, and explore why fandom felt like a safe space for women. The panelists also discuss the sometimes negative reactions received...Wound through with personal anecdotes ("Will the real James Tiptree please stand up!", and the production of "The Emperor Norton Science Fiction Hour"), the discussion provides a window on an important area of science fiction fan history.
https://youtu.be/8xcMcZNUCS0  - Part 2 - Panelists Jeanne, Lucy and Janice continue here with more on the reactions they received from others, and with the differences in being a feminist in fandom in the 70s and in the 80s...Part 2 has stories about dating approaches in fandom, the wonderful origins of Corflu, and a number of anecdotes (both serious and constructive as well as personal and funny) about well known women writers. There are charming anecdotes about Octavia Butler, Connie Willis, Sheri Tepper (and her rousing call to action on population growth), and Ursula Le Guin. You'll also hear about the origins and early days of the Tiptree Award, and its novel funding mechanism. Finally, there are audience comments and reminiscences including a true story about the Minneapolis chicken hat...This session is lots of fun, with a serious thread underlying it.

--Centaur, Jack Chalker. Added Centaur 1 (Apr 60), aka the first issue of Mirage. The 2nd issue was named Kaleidoscope 2, and the third was named Mirage 3. It stayed Mirage after that. There's a John Berry article in this first issue. Adding the Centaur completes the run of Mirage.
--Conversation, Lynn Hickman. Added 2 issues of this new-to-us title, both from 1960.
--CyberCozen, Leybl Botwinik. Added the January and February issues. Thanks, Leybl.
--Fantasy Amateur. Added 5 issues: 195-197 (May-Nov 86), and 199-200 (May - Aug 87). All were by Seth Goldberg.
--Helen's Fantasia, Helen Wesson. Added 3 issues of this new-to-us title. The zine ran for decades. These issues are from the 50s/60s.
--Imagination, Russ Hodgkins. Added #4 (Jan 38). Contributors include Forry Ackerman, Ray Bradbury and Henry Kuttner. There's also the text of a letter received by Forry Ackerman from H.P. Lovecraft. I believe this completes the run. Thanks to David Ritter, who noticed we were missing issue #4 and volunteered to provide scan. Thanks, David!
--MT Void, Evelyn and Mark Leeper. Added the 2/24/23 issue of the Mt. Holtz Science Fiction Society Newsletter. Thanks, Evelyn and Mark.
--Opuntia, Dale Speirs. Added the late February issue. Thanks, Dale.
--Perryscope, Perry Middlemiss. Added the Feb 23 issue of Perry's perzine. Thanks, Perry!
--Phantasy Press, Dan McPhail. Added #27 (Apr 60).

--Pulsar. Added 3 issues of this, the clubzine of the Portland Science Fiction Society. Added #90 (Rosalind Malin, Apr 86), #91 (Pat Gulley, May 86), #157 (Arlene Hills-Peterson, Nov 91). Scans provided by Sam Butler. Thanks, Sam.
--Quip, Lenny Bailes and Arnie Katz. Added #1 (Fall 65), thereby completing the run.
--Random, Daphne Buckmaster. Added #1 (Sep 60), completing the run.
--ScoLar, Lars Bourne and Scotty Tapscott. Added the full 2 issue run of this 1959-60 fanzine, plus a letter from the editors.
--Sercon's Bane, F.M. Busby. Added #40 (May 69).

--STF maglet, Eva Jane Clevenger. Added 2 issues of this new to us title from 1948. The second is a little strange, as it is combined with Kar Mar (K.M. Carlson) and Nuzine (Ray Higgs) and the triplezine is only 6 pages long.
--T-Negative, Ruth Berman. Added the double issue #34-35 (Mar 79), completing the run.
--TNFF, George Phillies and Jon Swartz. Added the February issue of the The National Fantasy Fan. Thanks, George!
--Valapa, Bruce Pelz. Added 4 issues. I think this apazine is called Valapa - the title is written in Cyrillic, and Valapa is the best I can do with a transliteration. It was for ValAPA so it kind of makes sense. I tried to put this up with the file names having a Cyrillic set of characters. The server refused, my local code for prepping the index page refused. I gave up and now we have the fanzine "Valapa".
--The Zine Dump, Guy Lillian III. Added #57 (Feb 23).

PDF conversions: Degler!, Andrew Porter. Replaced the first 52 issues that we had on line with searchable PDFs. The issues are from 1964-65. OCR by Mark Olson. Thanks, Mark.

YouTube Zoom: https://youtu.be/iH57MW1HfeE  New York Fandom in the 70s (Pt 1)- Moshe Feder, Jerry Kaufman, Andy Porter, and Steve Rosenstein
The story of New York fandom is fascinating, from its Worldcon in the 60s to fragmentation and multiple fannish groups in the 70s. In this 2023 Zoom recording, ably moderated by FANAC chair Joe Siclari, our panelists provide a fond and anecdotal recounting of their decades of experience in New York fandom. In this part 1 (of 2) you'll hear how they came into fandom (including the value of having a big name pro last name), the true meaning of Kratophany, and what the Avocado Pit really was. There's background on the many NY clubs of the era from Fanoclasts to Fistfa to Lunarians and SFFSAQC (this last founded by one of our speakers). There are personal anecdotes of Isaac Asimov, and the lengths that Jack Chalker went to in order to attend Lunarians while living in Baltimore. This video has plenty more - from the questionable respectability of the NYU club to why Moshe was cautioned not to sing along to "The Music Man" on Broadway to the first live fanzine, Spanish Inquisition and Stu Shiffman's exquisite mastery of on-stencil art.
--https://youtu.be/xFtdMBV0RFM  Part 2
In this part 2 (of 2), the session continues, beginning with how Star Trek conventions got started, modeled on the local traditional convention, Lunacon. Anecdotes include why a township in NJ paid bus fare for the actors in Trek-a-Star, how PBS was involved with the naming of Omni magazine, and all about Bunnycon, the get out of jail free convention . There are stories about SFExpo, Tesser-time, and the fanzine epicenter of New York - Brooklyn. You ll even hear why Moshe Feder, head of the Omnivores, could never be a Gastrognome. Towards the end of the video, there are comments from attendees, many of whom could easily have been panelists.
These are stories that really convey what it was like to be a fan in the 70s.

Corrections/Clarifications:Thanks to Bee Ostrowsky, changed the date on Blitherings #3 from Winter to Dec 44. The fanzine is marked "Winter, but given the confusion about which winter fanzines marked "Winter" actually belong in, a date of December makes more sense. At least it falls chronologically where it should. Thanks, Bee.

January 25, 2023
References and the new approach: I should have mentioned in the last update that the reference section has been revamped. There are now three index pages, structured somewhat like the fanzine index pages are structured. We have a page for Fan Histories, a page for fannish bibliographies of professional publications, and a page for everything else - https://fanac.org/fanzines/References. There are shortcuts at the top so you can find what you're looking for. With this new organization, you'll find that the references now appear in the alphabetical, chrono, and by editor listings. I've also added an index page for the older editions of Fancyclopedia at fanac.org/fanzines/Fancyclopedia.

You may notice that the navigation buttons are looking a little different. The references, Fancyclopedia buttons and miscellaneous other topics are now under "More". This may not be the Navigation bar's final form, but we'll settle on a standard soon. Thanks for your patience.

This is most likely our last update of the year. We have over 19,450 fanzines digitally archived and approx 23,000 publications total. Our APA Mailing view is growing as we go back and annotate our fanzine index pages, with 924 fanzines so far shown in their FAPA mailings (in context, sort of). Fancyclopedia is growing, the YouTube channel has topped 150K views, and the fannish community is continuing to provide scans and information to make the Fan History project better. Thank you all! Happy New Year.

--Cadenza, Charles and Jane Wells. Added 9 issues of this new-to-us genzine from the 60s. Issue 6 has a convention report on Chicon III. There's a lovely little description of fannish re-entry: "Juanita? Juanita Coulson?" I said stupidly (what other Juanitas are there in fandom?). This was the first of a number of encounters with people which illustrates my wonderment at being at a convention and meeting for the first time people that I already know. I am afraid that all day Saturday I must have seemed quite goshwow; I certainly felt goshwow. You people, you jaded ones who have been to several conventions and/or live near a bunch of fans will have to remember back a ways to understand how I felt. Until the convention, I had met personally only Don & Maggie, Jerry Burge and Jerry Page since I reentered fandom. I had never met the Coulsons, the Busbys, Shaws, Lupoffs, Dick Schultz, Betty Kujawa, and dozens of other people even though I actually already knew them through fmz and letters".

Between one shots, references, and other miscellaneous places to put fanzines that are not part of traditional runs, I sometimes end up posting a publication twice. Hopefully, there'll be less of that with the alpha listing  becoming so useful (unless of course something is published under multiple names).

References  - We're doing some reorganization on the References, and working to make sure they show up in the chronolgical, alphabetical and by Editor lists. The References will be organized more like fanzines than the existing free text we have today. There are three new index pages: Fan References, Fan Histories, and SF, Fantasy and Horror Bibliographies  (remember when EVERYONE was indexing?).

This will all take a few days, but most of it is up and useful right now. We are working to create PDFs of the references that were in JPG or HTML, and for now have mostly left links to the older format. The dictionaries were all like that. So, watch this space.

YouTube: https://youtu.be/641o6Os3oYw  - Fandom in 1970s Pittsburgh Pt1: Ginjer Buchanan, Linda Bushyager, Suzanne Tompkins, Laurie Mann (m)
Note: Participants had a few technical difficulties and there are some rough spots in the recording.
Pittsburgh in the late 60s/70s saw an explosion of fannish activity, with the founding of the Western Pennsylvania SF Association (WPSFA), the creation of PghLANGE and the publication of many fanzines, including Granfalloon (Linda Bushyager and Suzanne Tompkins). What made Pittsburgh special?...This group of panelists can certainly tell us - they're the Founding Mothers of WPSFA and PghLANGE. This conversation among friends truly conveys what it was like to be young, female, and the center of fannish creativity in 1970s Pittsburgh. It's history through facts and anecdotes, from how the organizers of the 1960 Worldcon felt about these new kids, to the Breezewood Curse and where the name PgHLANGE came from. You'll learn where and why Harlan Ellison whispered "Save me" to Ginjer, the contents of the first PgHLANGE art show, who Mary Esther is, and how Bob Silverberg came to welcome the Founding Mothers to Pittsburgh. It's great fun, and the convention stories of far too many people sharing far too little sleeping space may remind you of your early convention experiences.

https://youtu.be/sN9Raz5izs4  -In part 2 of this session, we continue the conversation by the Founding Mothers of WPSFA and PghLANGE (with a few friends!), and continue the focus on fans, professionals and conventions of the 70s... There are some great stories about Harlan Ellison, and Robert Silverberg. Octavia Butler s interaction with the group comes up too. Linda talks about why she started writing, and her connection to the NYcon, and Ginjer comments on her transition from social worker to award winning editor. The impact of Star Trek on WPSFA is dissected as well. Fans, both living and dead, are remembered, with stories and anecdotes, including the full story of the Pittsburgh subway system. My favorite is the story of the Sensuous SF writer .... There are touching stories, funny stories, and at least one story that achieved mythic status in fandom. If you were a Pittsburgh fan in the 70s, you may find yourself mentioned!

For selected APAs, here's where you can see what zines from individual mailings are on FANAC.org now. As we add more to the archive, the list shown will grow. Over time, you'll be able to follow get a sense of what each mailing was like and the mailing comments that came after. It's still thin, and it's still rough, and we need OE lists and dates for VAPA and others (hint...hint).

You can get a nearly complete view now of SFPA mailings from the early 00s, thanks to the massive scanning job done by Rich Lynch. Thanks, Rich! Thanks, Mark!

Apologies for the (recently) expired SSL certificate we had for a few days, that yielded the slightly scary security messages. Apparently auto-renewal means that I need to hit a button on the web hosting site in order to get the SSL certificate to renew.

https://youtu.be/m67GUPgxGvE  MaggieThompson: Before, During and After the Origins of Comics Fandom - Part 1 of 2
Maggie Thompson has the unique distinction of being a second generation science fiction fan, one of the architects of comics fandom in the early 60s, and a much revered professional in the comics field. In this two part zoom session, she is interviewed by Dr. Chris Couch...Part 1: In this absolutely delightful interview, Maggie talks about her lifelong experiences with science fiction, science fiction fandom, and popular culture. From her early love of the Oz books and her delight in John Campbell's magazine Unknown, to her convention and masquerade experiences, to her professional successes, Maggie's anecdotes are engrossing. There are great stories here - how she acquired her complete set of Unknowns, the origins of her publications Comic Art and Newfangles, the family connection to Walt Kelly (and the Pogo comic strip), her friendship with Carl Barks, and more....Endearingly, when asked as a child what she wanted to be when she grew up, Maggie answered "I want to be a BNF" (Big Name Fan). She has certainly accomplished that ambition.
https://youtu.be/92CP4-7nsK8  Part 2
In this part of the interview by Dr. Chris Couch, we learn more about Maggie Thompson and her influence on comics. With husband Don Thompson, she published fanzines Comic Art and Newfangles, and went on to edit Comics Buyer s Guide and others. Maggie is a respected professional in the field and has been recognized with many awards, including the Eisner, the Harvey, the Inkpot, and the Jack Kirby awards...Part 2: Continuing this absolutely delightful interview, Maggie talks about her segue into the professional field, the end of Newfangles and the start of the Comic Buyers Guide. The engrossing anecdotes continue, with the nature of cosmopolitan Iola, Wisconsin, her articulation of "perpetual but non-exclusive rights", Dark Shadows, and the Done in One label for comics. There are stories of some of the field's great figures, including Harlan Ellison, Stan Lee, and Carl Barks. You'll see questions from the audience as well...After decades of furious activity in science fiction and comics, Maggie remains bubbling and full of enthusiasm for her chosen community. There was no need to ask Maggie what keeps her involved - the answers are more than clear.

Fanzine Navigation: Whoo-hoo! Thanks to Mark Olson and his nifty software, we have added another navigation aid for you. We now have a fanzine listing By Editor, which will be updated when we do our regular updates. This joins our normal archive listing, chron listing, country listing, and issue alphabetical listing, along with the newszine chron list, as ways you can find what you're looking for. Searches turn up all sorts of extraneous info, such as reviews and photos. Now you can see what's available for a particular editor far more easily. One note - name variations are listed separately (eg Walter A. Willis and Walt Willis). We'll get them combined soon. Many thanks to Mark Olson!

YouTube: https://youtu.be/OJ-JgYw1Js4  - Julia Ecklar was the special filk guest at Tropicon 8, held in Dania, Florida, in 1989. This recording captures the second part of an open filk at the convention, and includes 11 songs (of which Julia sings seven). The singers on this recording in order of appearance: Julia Ecklar, Linda Melnick, Dina Pearlman, C.J. Cherryh, Francine Mullen, and Doug Wu...includes much of the conversation between songs, the laughter and the real feel of a 1980s convention filk session. One lovely addition is that Linda Melnick signs on one of the songs, as well as sings. Another bonus - this video includes several songs by Orion's Belt, which consisted of Dina Pearlman, Francine Mullen and Doug Wu. Tropicon was a small convention, and you will see some of the author guests in the filk. That's Tropicon 8 GoH Lynn Abbey sitting next to C.J. Cherryh for example, and Joe Green sitting back against the wall...Thanks to Eli Goldberg for sound editing on this recording.

YouTube: https://youtu.be/j6uRdWcYStU: Minicon 15 (1979)-Theodore Sturgeon Guest of Honor Speech, with intro by Toastmaster Bob Vardeman - Minicon 15 was held April 13-15, 1979 in Minneapolis, with Guests of Honor Theodore Sturgeon, Rick Sternbach and Tom Digby...In this brief Guest of Honor speech, Sturgeon speaks about his experience at the "Jupiter Encounter" at JPL, seeing photos of Ganymede and Callisto for the first time. This is followed by a rumination on humanity, interwoven with his shaping of "Sturgeon's Law", and an exposition on his favored "Ask the Next Question" philosophy. In this brief 16ish minute recording, you get a sense of the man himself. A lovely (and knowledgeable) intro by Bob Vardeman sets the stage...Thanks to Geri Sullivan and the Video Archeology project for providing the recording.

Updated on the Fan Publications  page: Thanks to a reminder from Murray Moore, I've updated three informational pages about our Fanzines. Go to Fan Publications  for links to the current view of our Core Fanzine List to Scan, our Fanzine Begging List, and our somewhat overlapping but intended to be compelling "We Only Need One Issue to Complete the Run!"  list. On this last one, you'll notice some items that we really should have - fanzines by fans that are still very much alive. We've asked most of them for copies or scans of the missing issues, and they don't have them either. So if you do, please let me know (at fanac@fanac.org). Murray has kindly volunteered to bring some of these elusive issues 1-and-done issues to Chicon for scanning. Thanks, Murray!

Fanzines: Unless otherwise noted, all scans are by Joe Siclari
--Askance, John Purcell. Added the July 2022 issue. Thanks, John!
--B.T. His Mag, Bob Tucker. Added 3 issues: #3 (Sum 46), a 1949 issue, and B.T. His Pages 15 (Feb 66). Look at the back page of #3 - can you identify the photos? Or rather, can you help identify the photos?
--CyberCozen, Leybl Botwinik. Added the July issue. Thanks, Leybl!
--fanzines/Elmurmurings, Elmer Purdue. Added #1 (Feb 62). Yes, this is the 2nd #1 on the index page. Fans are infinitely creative in their numbering.
--Fanmark Greeting Cards, Jim Caughran, Bjo and John Trimble. Added 8 items to a new index page for Fanmark Greeting Cards. These were a 1959 one-shot effort, but there are 7 distinct cards here. Still charming, even if not as applicable as they were 60+ years ago.
--MT Void, Evelyn and Mark Leeper. Added the 8/12 issue of the Mt. Holtz Science Fiction Society Newsletter. Thanks, Evelyn! Thanks, Mark!
--Quodlibet, Bill Patterson. Added 11 issues of Bill's 1980s perzine.

--Vagary, Roberta Gray. Added 4 items from the 60s for this new-to-us apazine title. Embarrassingly, these were lost in our pipeline for some time. Scans provided by Joe Patrizio. Thanks, Joe!
--Viewpoints, Roscoe Wright. Added #1 (Sum 52). "A controversy has risen about the management and tone of World Science-Fiction Conventions, particularly the coming one in Chicago. Since these annual conventions are of major interest to most science-fictionists the matter merits attention...The whole thing with the Chicon is that there arn t any really well known fans there...No one will know how bad things really are until it is too late. ... I think we need a new guard of convention planners.." This was in regards to Chicon II (Lest you believe that Worldcon politics are a new thing.


PDF conversions: Unless otherwise noted, all PDF conversions are by Joe Siclari.
--SF Newsscope, Lawrence Ray Campbell. Replaced the remaining issues we have on line with searchable PDFs. Also, since Joe pointed out that I was spelling the fanzine name wrong, I've renamed it correctly (and fixed the link online). For those keeping score, it had been SF Newscope and now it is SF Newsscope. Thanks, Joe.

Corrections and Clarifications: FanewsCard, Walt Dunkelberger. Thanks to Jerry Kaufman for spotting a wrongly asserted year for #325. I don't think it's actually #325 either, so it's there as Fanews Summer 1947. At 62 pages it's not a FanewsCard but a Fanews. Thanks, Jerry!

Corrections and Clarifications: Lots of rearranging going on. Based on recommendations from Sam McDonald, I moved several of the zines from the 1 Issue - Maybe More to Come  to the One Shot pages. Several others were already up, and I had a (forgotten) precursor to the "1 Issue-More to Come" index called "Miscellaneous Fanzines". Those are now moved over and the Misc page is gone. I'm sure I'll find more that were in various pockets on the website. Thanks again to Sam McDonald for his meticulous notes on the individual fanzines on this page.

--1 Issue-Maybe More to Come. I've had about 70 scans sitting waiting for more of the same title to be uploaded for a while. In this new index, I plan to put them up for the time being.

There are some great contributors - look at Camber 6 - Terry Jeeves, Terry Carr, John Berry, Ron Bennett, Jack Williams, Robert Bloch, Ron Ellik, Buck Coulson, Greg Benford and more. If anyone has scans they are willing to make or provide for other issues of these zines, I'll gladly give them their own pages and take them out of here. We start with 35 zines today, from 1941 to 1986. There's some good stuff here. Scanning for Lhyfe 3 by Roelof Goudrian, and for Marc 1 by Perry Middlemiss. Thanks, Roelof! Thanks, Perry!

Alphabetical List of Fanzines  - This looks different. John Hertz noticed that collections were not alphabetized like other fanzines. That wasn't very good, so Mark Olson has made an updated version of our fanzine alphabetization software that now treats collections differently, and alphabetizes them by their own name instead of something like 1940s One Shots. Now, instead of the decade by decade list at the front end of the alpha page, you'll see some individual zines with numbers for names. Good observation, John! Thanks! And of course, thanks to Mark Olson for the updated software.

Reference: Directories  - Added 2 fannish directories by Ron Bennett - one from 1956 and the other from 1958.

Minicon 10 (1975)-History of the MFS-Poul Anderson, Gordon Dickson, Clifford Simak, Bob Tucker & more: Minicon 10 was held April 18-20, 1975 in Minneapolis. This panel discussion, orchestrated by Gordy Dickson, majors in history and anecdotes of the 1940s Minneapolis Fantasy Society (MFS). Particpants: Kenny Gray, Poul Anderson, Oliver Saari, Gordon Dickson, Grace Riger, Bob Tucker, and Clifford Simak. A high percentage of the MFS members went on to sell professionally to the magazines...The panel begins with the flowering of MFS after Clifford Simak moved to town to anecdotes about late night hero-saving plot sessions to the true identity of Squanchfoot (hint: Simak s City was dedicated to him). You ll hear about the softball games in which many Saaris participated, the origin of Twonk s disease, how Poul became an MFS member and more. There s silly story writing, an imitation Red Boggs, and a mass induction into the MFS. For those that live(d) in Minneapolis, and for those that didn t, this recording provides an affectionate look at the early MFS...Many thanks to Geri Sullivan and the Video Archeology project for providing the recording.

You'll see something a little different in the Futurian War Digest  arena. Joe is scanning fanzines that came in a FIDO mailing, and I am putting them online separately under their own name, with a "Mailing" column indicating which FIDO aka FWD mailing they were associated with. At a later time, we will dynamically assemble the individual mailing index pages. Our plan is to do this not only for FIDO, but to gradually be able to assemble FAPA and OMPA mailings, even though they are partial and represent only the zines we have online.

April 24, 2022 History Zoom on YouTube: Joe and Gay Haldeman - Fandom From Both Sides, a Fan History zoom with Joe Siclari
Esteemed icons in the field, Joe and Gay Haldeman have been involved with science fiction fandom since discovering it in the early 1960s. With long, successful careers, they have a view on science fiction from both the fan and the professional side. Joe Haldeman s highly regarded writing career has included 5 Hugo awards, 5 Nebulas, 3 Rhysling Awards, and many other honors; Big Heart award winner Gay Haldeman has managed the business as well as been a literary agent. But in this delightful zoom interview, the focus is primarily on fandom. Interviewer Joe Siclari knows just what to ask, having been friends with the Haldemans for decades.
Part 1 https://youtu.be/yfrOhqzPEts: Joe and Gay describe how they first found fandom, their experiences at their first convention (Discon I, 1963), and how (and why) they became fans. They tell anecdotes of fans and professionals, their connections with non-US fandom, and the surprising identity of Joe s Italian editor. Joe tells the story of how he single-handedly (if unintentionally) started I-Con in 1975, his work on convention program (some of it while serving in Viet Nam), his contributions to fanzines and more. There s serious discussion about the reaction of fandom to him as a returning vet, along with Gay s fannish activities while Joe was overseas. You ll also hear much more, including the relationship between book advances and house mortgages, and the ultimate story of how far a science fiction novel can go. Highly recommended.
Part 2 https://youtu.be/4M-le9XebPg: In this Part 2 of the interview, the conversation continues with discussion and personal anecdotes about well-known authors and Big Name Fans. Rusty Hevelin was a particularly good friend, and Joe and Gay tell how they met him, and some impressive travel stories (especially the bicycle ones!). They offer stories and insights on Keith Laumer, Gordon Dickson, Robert Heinlein, Harlan Ellison, and others outside the field as well. This part of the zoom has audience Q&A, ranging from a literary question about the role of women in the Forever War to favorite means of writing (which leads to samples of Joe s artwork). Many of the questions begin with I first met you in xxxx , and the tone of the session is that of close friends, sharing a cherished time together. As one of the attendees says, You are some of the best people I know .

YouTube: https://youtu.be/a3fWrhyOT6o  FanHistoriCon 6 (1997) - From MITSFS to NESFA to MCFI - Meskys, Harter, Lewis and Clement
FanHistoriCon 6 was held February 13-16, 1997 in conjunction with Boskone 34 in Framingham, MA. In this 35 minute excerpt of the panel "From MITSFS to NESFA to MCFI". Ed Meskys, Richard Harter, Tony Lewis and Hal Clement tell us stories of Boston area fandom from the Stranger Club in the 1940s, through area fandom's evolution by way of conventions, MIT and worldcon bids to NESFA and MCFI in the 90s. Beginning with the readers' club of the 40s and giving way to the more active projects of MITSFS and NESFA, the panel fondly remembers the people and pastimes that were the substance of Boston area fandom. Anecdotes mention well known names such as L. Ron Hubbard and Hugo Gernsback, the price of an interior illo from Amazing Magazine in the 1940s, and the storybook romance of Larry Niven and Fuzzy Pink. You'll learn the rules of the MITSFS game "Insanity", the originally proposed name for NESFA, the origins of Locus and much more. You'll even get a first hand report of why/how Hal Clement was "fired" from the Noreascon 1 committee. If you're interested in 20th century Boston fandom, here's your chance to listen to four of the folks that made it happen.

--https://youtu.be/YBvajl4-Bew  Minicon 15 (1979)-History of the Future-Ted Sturgeon, Clifford Simak, Lester del Rey, Gordon Dickson: Minicon 15 was held April 13-15, 1979 in Minneapolis. In this recording, four of the most respected authors of their time, Ted Sturgeon, Cliff Simak, Lester del Rey and Gordy Dickson have a free ranging discussion on topics from earlier science fiction views of the future, to what the literature has "missed", and the relationship of technocracy to then current society. Lester del Rey is at his most opinionated, getting laughs and applause, as well as exhibiting his encyclopedic knowledge of the field. There are discussions of freedom vs governance, the problems of finding information, and, triggered by a question from the audience, a long discussion on education. Cliff Simak tells a deeply personal story about his son's experience in the public school system, and the other authors speak of their own experiences with education. There are predictions, anecdotes, and a few surprising revelations...Thanks to Geri Sullivan and the Video Archeology project for providing the recording.
--https://youtu.be/z7vvR6z_j-U  MidAmeriCon, the 34th World Science Fiction Convention, was held in Kansas City in 1976. In this very short video excerpt from the Fan Funds Auction at Big Mac, auctioneer Rusty Hevelin shows just how far fans will go to be supportive of the Fan Funds. In this clip, it's not books or vegemite up for bid, but currency. The second item is the one to watch, with Rusty skillfully extracting bids from the crowd. You'll also see fellow auctioneer Jan Finder making a brief appearance...This video is brought to you by the FANAC Fan History Project, with video from the Video Archeology project (coordinated by Geri Sullivan, with technical work by David Dyer-Bennet).

--https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iV9RBu6leUU, Traveling Ghiants, Fan Funds from the Days of Mimeo to the Days of Zoom (pt 1 of 2) -FanHistory Zoom
From the YouTube Description for Part 1: "Geri Sullivan (TAFF 2019) leads a lively panel on Fan Funds and how they've evolved over the last 70ish years. With Lesleigh Luttrell (first DUFF winner), Suzanne Tompkins (TAFF 2005), and Justin Ackroyd (GUFF 1984), the conversation in part 1 of this discussion ranges from why different Fan Funds were started ("to get rid of John Foyster for a while"), to the pre-internet experience of meeting an entire new fannish community, to the unexpected situations that administrators have faced. How long does a Fan Fund trip last? What responsibilities come with being a Fan Fund winner? Can you be an introvert and shine as a Fan Fund delegate? Here's your chance to find out."
--https://youtu.be/JyGMi4OSEyQ, Part 2: "In part 2, of our panel, Geri Sullivan (TAFF 2019), Lesleigh Luttrell (first DUFF winner), Suzanne Tompkins (TAFF 2005), and Justin Ackroyd (GUFF 1984), continue their collective tale of the history of Fan Funds. Beginning with further discussion on Fan Funds before the days of the internet, the topics range to the effects of Covid, being a Fan Fund winner to a virtual convention and other realities of modern fandom. There are traveler's tales, the true story of how Seattle was nominated for the Australian Natcon, an accounting of the winners of different Fan Funds that are now married, and more. Towards the end, there are comments and questions from the audience. Part 2 brings you up-to-date, and maybe a little bit into the future."

--Thud and Blunder Stories, Paul Shingleton. Added #5 of this quarter size fanzine from the early 60s. The editorial is by "PCS" and it took a while to figure out that PCS was Paul Shingleton. In fact, the only way I figured that out was by finding that some of the letters were addressed to "Paul", and doing a google search for "Thud and Blunder Stories" Paul. That led me to a 1964 TNFF issue that had a mention - "The last time we saw a quarter-size fanzine, was a few years ago when a Mr. Paul Shingleton was thudding and blundering his way through an appropriately titled periodical called THUD AND BLUNDER STORIES." Aha! Hooray for searchable PDFs, and for the vast indexing empire.

Death Does Not Release You - LASFS (pt2 of 2): "In part 2 of this FANAC Fan History Zoom Session (Feb 2022), the LASFS family reunion continues. Craig Miller (TV writer and producer, Worldcon chair, and LASFS member), Ken Rudolph (filmmaker, fanzine editor, former LASFS officer), Tim Kirk (professional artist, awarded many Fan Artist and Professional Artist Hugo Awards), and Bobbi Armbruster (professional and fan meeting and convention organizer) continue their conversation...Despite some early audio problems, the talk ranges from other Los Angeles fan subgroups like the Bixel Street Irregulars (40s), the Petards (late 60s-80s) and the Blackguards (60s), to well-known fans and professionals of the Los Angeles area to untimely deaths. Tim Kirk tells the wonderful story of how his Master's Thesis and a little luck resulted in his breaking through to the professional art field. There are even some convention stories, including the surprising origin of Loscon...If you're interested in the first big Heinlein blood drive, plans for the Last Dangerous Visions, or how many people could fit in the clubhouse kitchen, settle back and enjoy the recording."

Death Does Not Release You - LASFS Through the Years (Pt 1 of 2). From the YouTube description: "Legend (and John Trimble) has it that the slogan "Death Does Not Release You" came about when Ray Bradbury gave a talk at the Los Angeles Science Fantasy Society and was asked to pay his dues. When Bradbury said his membership had expired, Ernie Wheatley told him "death does not release you, even if you die". Bradbury paid his 35 cents... This notable group of panellists, including artist Tim Kirk, TV writer and producer Craig Miller, filmmaker Ken Rudolph and convention runner Bobbi Armbruster are all current or former members of LASFS. They are fan artisits, convention runners, fanzine editors and club officers. In part 1, the panellists talk about how they were welcomed into science fiction fandom and into LASFS (including how Ray Bradbury talked teenager Craig Miller into going to his first club meeting). There are stories about the drug culture of the 60s and its barbarian invasion of the club, as well as about the big movers and shakers of the 60s and 70s, many no longer with us, such as Bruce Pelz and Len Moffat. Even if you've never been to a LASFS meeting, this feels like a nostalgic family reunion. See Part 2 for the continuation."

YouTube: https://youtu.be/UlCwj-SMlCQ. Description from YouTube: "Sam Moskowitz (SaM) was the chairman of the first World Science Fiction Convention (1939), a mover and shaper of science fiction fandom from the earliest days, and a historian of the field. In this audio interview (presented with illustrative pictures) from 1963. Fred Lerner, noted librarian, bibliographer and historian, conducts a conversation that ranges from the definition of science fiction, to typical early plots, to an analysis of the early 60s magazine and paperback industry. SaM was both a professional in the field, a writer, anthologist and critic as well as an iconic fan presence. In this interview, he speaks as a professional, casually inserting fannish references as he discusses the differences between science fiction fandom in the 30s and 60s, analyzes how fans relate to the general readership, and talks about the gaps that science fiction can fill...In Fancyclopedia.org, it is reported that "one friend described him as "physically massive" with a booming voice." In later years, SaM had throat cancer which required the surgical removal of his larynx, necessitating that he speak through an electronic voice-box, held against his throat. In this recording, you can hear SaM speak in his own voice about the field he loved and lived in...Thanks to Fred Lerner for providing the recording, and to Dr. Eric Fleischer (Dr. Gandalf) for digitization."

--Fan-Dango, F.T. Laney. Big thanks to Ben Ostrowsky for spotting missing issues of Fan-Dango.

Fanzines: All issues not otherwise credited were scanned by Joe Siclari.

YouTube: https://youtu.be/RA8RevkW2HM  The Future of Future Evolution, with Joe Green, Jack C. Haldeman II, Vince Miranda, and Tom Maddox. From the YouTube description - Tropicon 6 was a small local convention, held in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida in 1987. This panel discussion about gene editing and the Future of Future Evolution is worth watching for several reasons. Thanks to author Joe Green, the panel focuses in very quickly on gene editing, and the issues it brings to confront humanity, both technically and ethically. The insightful comments by the panelists, and the issues and choices discussed are still very much with us, despite the panel having been recorded in 1987. One warning - there is loud background air conditioning noise for the first 15 minutes or so, but the sound is perfect for the remainder of the recording...The recording also provides a view into the dynamics of small, local conventions, where the writers are part of the community, know each other, and are not adverse to arguing with the audience. Everyone knows everyone, and no one is shy about asking questions. This panel was held at 10PM on Friday night, and there is silliness in the beginning.

Added 2 items today: Fan World 2 (Jan 46), and Science Fiction World 1 (1945). Last October, Bill Burns had given us some links to "The Tin Can Wonder" about mimeography. Well, it apparently was an article in Science Fiction World 1, added today. Pretty cool.

January 28, 2022
YouTube: https://youtu.be/OXi_7JWTYUI  ConFusion 14 (1977) - Poul Anderson/Gordon Dickson: The Way It Was (Pt 1): Minneapolis Fantasy Society - This short video features a conversation between authors Poul Anderson and Gordon Dickson on the history of the Minneapolis Fantasy Society (MFS). Gordy, the older of the two, begins with a description of the prewar (World War II) MFS, a serious writers' group with members such as Clifford Simak and Donald Wandrei. Poul and Gordy then bring the calendar forward with anecdotes of traveling to Torcon (1948), MFS parties, and how the writing community worked in the middle of the century. These much loved members of the science fiction community are by turns very earnest, very funny and always very engaging in telling us "The Way It Was"...Note that this is part 1 of a longer program. As of January 2022, we are working to digitize the next part..Also note that there are about 5 seconds of disrupted video towards the end of the recording...Thanks to Geri Sullivan and the Video Archeology project for providing the recording.

Men turned away from him, women did not look, children stopped and watched him. It did not matter to the neo-fan. When the white lightning struck his mail box, he received his egoboo."

-- https://youtu.be/70_LRCmjhOM  - "Diana Gallagher is now known primarily for her science fiction media novels. However, especially early in her fannish career, she also impressed as a filk songwriter/performer, and a fan artist. She received several Pegasus Awards, as well as the 1988 Fan Artist Hugo Award. As her songs often show, Diana was also an avid supporter of the space program. She passed away in December 2021....This recording was made in our living room in the early 1980s. At that time, she was a member of the local science fiction group, and an avid filker. She was our friend... This recording is excerpted from a longer filk recording, and features her performances of five songs (of which 4 were written by her). Many thanks to our Filk Consultant, Eli Goldberg and to our Sound Editor, Luke Bretscher for their help with this recording."
-- https://youtu.be/Yz1x2ryc50I  - Birth of the Society for Creative Anachronism - from an interview with Ed Meskys (2018) - "Ed Meskys tells us the story of the beginnings of the Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA) in this short audio recording (enhanced with photographs). Ed played a pivotal role in introducing fencers Dave Thewlis and Ken de Maiffe to Diana Paxson, and has an insider's perspective on how the "Great Idea" was born...Ed recounts how the First Tournament came to be, and points us to a contemporary report about it in his fanzine, Niekas. You can read the report on page 7 of #16 at https://fanac.org/fanzines/Niekas/...This short recording is excerpted from a longer 2018 interview by Mark Olson." We are in process of converting the Niekas jpgs to searachble PDFs. If you want to read the Paxson article, go to the fanzine index page and see what we have online at the moment for #16.

YouTube: Part 1 - https://youtu.be/yh6FLBOWCDs  and Part 2: https://youtu.be/Ldl6n5YbKiY 
Added "Wrong Turns on the Wallaby Track: Australian SF Fandom 1936-60, Leigh Edmonds, Perry Middlemiss" in 2 parts. Note: To begin Leigh had technical difficulties for the first 10 minutes so his portion begins after an excellent, but slightly long, introduction by Perry Middlemiss.
From the YouTube description: "In this delightful Fan History Zoom (Dec 2021), historian Leigh Edmonds provides both context and details of Australian Science Fiction Fandom in the early days. Beginning with an introduction to Australian history of the period by Perry Middlemiss, the session entertainingly describes the important fans, and clubs from the beginnings in Sydney with a Science Fiction League branch, to the Futurian Society of Sydney and the Thursday night group. Leigh provides both entertaining and instructive insights, from the parallels to US fannish history, to the Australian group whose "main form of entertainment was feuding", and the impact on science fiction readers of the Australian wartime embargo on the import of unncessary items. He discusses the uniquely Australian barriers to becoming a professional writer in the field, the banning of Weird Tales on moral grounds and more. This enjoyable talk, illustrated with photos and maps, brings together both Australian history, and the nitty gritty details (and entertaining anecdotes) of the early days of Australian science fiction fandom....Leigh Edmonds is an Australian historian, and honorary research fellow at the Collaborative Research Centre in Australian History (CRCAH) at Federation University in Ballarat, Australia. He is also a very long term science fiction fan. Perry Middlemiss is a fanwriter and editor as well as a former Worldcon chair.

He's taking Poul's latest story -- one about Nick van Rijn---but he took a couple of pages complaining about various aspects of low-temperature chemistry involved, in it. This happens all the time. He never asks for revisions, but he almost always disagrees with some point in the physics (damn this typer) or chemistry or sociology of a story...I've missed him at the last couple of conventions; I do like John, in spite of everything. I still hope to write something I can sell him."

October 27, 2021
YouTube: https://youtu.be/IAk4g-3A1MQ. Added our latest Fan History Zoom Session. From the YouTube writeup: "...Keith Freeman and British fan historian Rob Hansen provide a first hand look at some of the landmark moments of British fandom. Keith found fandom in the 1950s, while still enlisted in the RAF, and became part of the Cheltenham Circle. Over the next decades, he was heavily involved in science fiction fandom. There are wonderful stories here of the origins of St. Fantony (and the associated jousting), the role of the Liverpool group in fannish marriages, the British Science Fiction Association (BSFA), and well known fans such as Eric Jones and Dave Kyle. In addition to fannish tales, Keith relates a chilling first person account of an H-bomb explosion on Christmas Island... Rob Hansen, author of "Then: Science Ficton Fandom in the UK: 1930-1980" is both interviewer and participant, eliciting an absorbing hour of fannish history."

St. Fantony, BSFA, Brumcon and more - British Fan history with Keith Freeman and Rob Hansen Time: 2PM EDT, 7PM London, 11AM PDT, 1PM CDT
Keith Freeman and British fan historian Rob Hansen provide a first-hand look at some of the landmark moments of British fandom, from the inside. Keith has been a science fiction fan since the 50s he was a member of the Cheltenham Circle, a founder of the Reading Science Fiction Club, and is credited with reviving the Order of St. Fantony. He s a fanzine fan (still active!), a past officer of the British Science Fiction Society (BSFA), and the 1977 winner of the Doc Weir Award. Among his considerable fannish accomplishments, interviewer Rob Hansen is well known as a historian of British fandom, having published the definitive history Then -- Science Fiction Fandom in the UK: 1930-1980. Join us for this interview/discussion and find out about Brumcon, St. Fantony, the SF Society of Great Britain, the Eastercon relationship with BSFA, and more, including perhaps what it s like to watch an H-bomb explode.

FANAC by the Numbers: Updated our By-the-Numbers profile for the first time since last December. I don't have a way to easily count the photos, so that count is old. In the last 10ish months, we've added almost 3000 fanzines, close to 400 convention publications, over 1100 Fancyclopedia articles and 24 YouTube pieces. I'll try to get this updated more regularly. There's a lot of fan history; the numbers are a way we can mark our progress on documenting it all.

Her descripton of Isaac Asimov (reality) vs Isaac Asimov (what she expected) includes - "He turned out to be a senior-sized Harlan Ellison without the pipe and mustache.

YouTube: Thanks to Mowgli Assor for making it possible for this 88 year old fannish legend to participate in a 21st century Zoom.
--Part 1: https://youtu.be/fubdSdZSmrc  Juanita Coulson has been an active science fiction fan for 70 years. She's a marathon fanzine publisher, a mainstay of the filk community and a professional writer. Among her honors: Hugo winner (Yandro, 1965), Worldcon Fan Guest of Honor (1972), Filk Hall of Fame inductee (1998) and she famously outsang a steamboat whistle (NASFiC, 1979). In this fascinating interview, Juanita provides personal recollections of some of the legendary fans of science fiction, of whom she is one. Juanita starts with her entry into fandom, her experiences at Chicon II (1952 Worldcon) and recalls how racism affected her friend Bev Bowles as she tried to check into a convention hotel. Juanita tells of her first meeting with Harlan Ellison, the origin of Bob Tucker's "smooth" gesture, the first all night filksing and how she lost her job during the McCarthy era for being "different". This interview is a rare and enlightening look into science fiction fandom in 50s, 60s and onward. Part 1 ends with Juanita's rendition of one of the filksongs she made famous, Reminder, written by husband Buck Coulson.
--Part 2:https://youtu.be/hFVaScb9WmI  In part 2, Juanita talks more about fandom in the 60s and beyond There are stories of filk and its evolution, Filthy Pierre, her appearance as General Jinjur of Oz, and the quirky story of Gene Wolfe and the jacket shot. She recounts the start of her professional writing career, with the mentorship and encouragement of Marion Zimmer Bradley, and receiving this note from first reader Terry Carr: "In the immortal words of Lee Hoffman, you have lost your return postage". She speaks about women in science fiction fandom, the difference that Star Trek made, and getting lost in the basements of the St. Louiscon (1969) hotel. There are a lot of stories to tell, and after 70 years, Juanita is still a fan. Fandom is home.

Reminder: This Saturday, we are restarting our Zoom History  sessions, and featuring Juanita Coulson. If you're not on the frequent Zoomer list, please send an rsvp to fanac@fanac.org. From the announcement: Juanita Coulson has been a marathon fanzine editor, a mainstay of the filk community, and a professional writer. She s a little bit larger than life, and among other honors, has been a DUFF winner (2014), a Hugo winner (1965), Worldcon Fan GoH (1972), NASFiC GoH (2010), Filk Hall of Fame inductee (1998) and a Big Heart Award winner (2012). Juanita has been widely known in filk music circles since the 1950s for both her singing and her songwriting, and was instrumental in establishing filk as a part of SF conventions. For thirty-three years, she co-edited the fanzine Yandro with her husband Buck, publishing a massive 259 issues. Yandro was nominated for a Hugo Award every year for ten years in a row, from 1958 1967. It won the award in 1965, thus making Juanita Coulson one of the very first women editor s to be so honored. Juanita s first novel, Crisis on Cheiron, came out in 1967. In this zoom history discussion, expect stories of 60+ years of fandom, how Juanita beat the steam boat whistle at NaSFic, mimeography, her Star Trek fanzines, and maybe even a song or two.

Corrections and Clarifications: Bill Burns has reported the first migration bug (now fixed). He received a 404 Not Found error (in itself a problem), and when he tried to follow the directions to report the issue, further got an error that there was no webmaster@fanac.org. That email address has now been added, and the wayward file has been found. I saw that error page and never noticed the webmaster@fanac.org direction. Thanks, Bill!

PDF Replacements: Lighthouse, Terry Carr and Peter Graham. Replaced 14 issues with searchable PDFs. Now they're all PDF'd.

PDF Replacements: When we replace a JPG version of a fanzine with a PDF version, it takes a while for Google to catch up. You are better off following the links in index page, and not searching for specific issues. Google may send you to the old JPG page, which is no longer online. This has been a PSA (in response to folks telling me they are getting 404s).

YouTube: https://youtu.be/cGnbizJYUvs. Big MAC Hugos. From the YouTube description: "MidAmeriCon, the 34th World Science Fiction Convention, was held in Kansas City in 1976. In this recording, Toastmaster Bob Tucker orchestrates a relatively compact ceremony, nevertheless with time and space for a little fannish humor, with the assistance of Pat Cadigan. The evening includes the awarding of the E. Everett Evans Big Heart Award, and a heartfelt presentation by Lester Del Rey of the First Fandom award given to Harry Bates. Ben Bova and Joe Haldeman are among the Hugo recipients accepting awards. The recording is a little damaged in places, but very watchable. Video and video restoration provided by David Dyer-Bennet and the Video Archeology Project."

If you can see this line, then our server migration is complete! Let's hope we're done for a few more years, as it's always traumatic. Apologies to everyone who sent material that has languished during the migration, or who sent corrections which have been seemingly ignored.

We've published another FANAC Newsletter - FANAC Newsletter. This is #16, and has several vignettes on how fan history is being documented, along with an update on the work. You can assign your own adjectives to the vignettes, but I like "charming". There's also a mini-article by Joe on relevant fanzines from comix, mystery and folk music fandoms.

--Ankus, Bruce Pelz. Added 16 issues of this new-to-us APAzine. Bruce started it in 1961 and the last issue was published in 2002, a very respectable run.

They couldn't happen, but worse things might." There's a collection of Breendoggle related material here - https://fanac.org/fanzines/Breen_Boondoggle/.

YouTube: Added the very funny fannish musical "The Decomposers", produced in 1978 at Boskone 16. It's in two parts.
Part 1: https://youtu.be/HNkutuCsAvI 
Part 2: https://youtu.be/Ijqp1x7QU6w 
From the writeups - "A very funny musical depiction of a poorly run Worldcon, this fannish musical was written by Mark M. Keller and Sue Anderson, and produced with musical direction by Chip Hitchcock. The problems are played for laughs, with specialized fandoms clamoring for space, a very inexperienced head of program room allocation, and a Worldcon Chair who does nothing at all. There are plays within plays, and we see a few musical numbers from each."...."In part 2, the WorldCon's woes continue, as the chairs resign and the committee puts the convention together on the spot. There are Star Wars and Forbidden Planet jokes, there are gentle digs at Isaac Asimov and other well known authors, and there are more than a few in-jokes. Watch for the delightful songs on "Women in SF panels" and "Quitting Science Fiction". If you have trouble with understanding any of the words in this 40+ year old recording, you can read along in the searchable Songbook at https://fanac.org/fanzines/Musicals/Musicals06.pdf. NESFA, the New England Science Fiction Association, which ran Boskone 16, comes in for a little jab a "The New England Science Fiction Authority", but features in the big ending."
Lots of fans appear, including some that are no longer with us; check the Playbill for a full list - https://fanac.org/fanzines/Musicals/Musicals07-02.html.
This recording was made by Bill Desmond, provided by Rick Katze and digitized by Dr. Gandalf. Thanks!

YouTube: https://youtu.be/cHJCvdkVRWU  ConFiction (1990) Worldcon - The Hugo Ceremony. From the YouTube writeup: This video, captured with a hand held camera, covers the Hugo Awards, as well as the Campbell Award for New Writers, and the fannish Big Heart and First Fandom awards. Many awards were accepted by designees for the recipients, and we see Anne McCaffrey and Jack Chalker among those accepting for others. There's a bit of humor from Dave Langford, and appearances by the American Ambassader to the Netherlands, C. Howard Wilkins. The World Science Fiction Society Banner, first hung at NyCon II in 1956, makes its appearance, and the video ends with the traditional view of all the recipients on stage." The video was recorded by John Cramer, provided by Tom Whitmore and used with the permission of Kees van Toorn, Chairman of ConFiction. Thanks, all!

June 9, 2021
Fanzines Added: Unless otherwise noted, all scans are by Joe Siclari. You'll see a real community effort here. On one day we received scans from 4 countries on 3 continents.

The Fan-Vet was published by the Fantasy Veterans Association.
--Fantum, Anne Steul. From Rob Hansen: Fantum is "historically important being the first fanzine by an individual German fan. The SFCD, which had only formed less than a year earlier, had ANDROMEDA as it's official organ, and that was it. FANTUM's editor, Anne Steul, also organised the first German SF con (with some help from the Benfords) and did an OMPAzine, too." Scan by Rob Hansen. Thanks, Rob!
--Femizine, Joan Carr. Added #2 (Summer 54). From Joe Siclari: "Femizine was an integral part of one of the great fannish hoaxes. It started as a zine for all women contributors with editor Joan W. Carr. Joan's address was at Maida Camp in Egypt. Joan Carr, of course, was male fan Sandy Sanderson. He had some help from Frances Evans and Ethel Lindsay. The subterfuge was revealed in 1956, in issue 9 officially. Pam Bulmer's editorial says the revelation was met with laughter but there were also some bad feelings generated. It took a while, but Ethel Lindsay revived the zine under a proposed (seriously or not) new title, Distaff. Femizine was back officially with #11 and with a swarm of new contributors, many were US femmefans. The last issue was #15 in 1960. Rob Hansen has some background including photos of "Joan" and the other Femizine contributors at http://www.fiawol.org.uk/FanStuff/THEN%20Archive/Femizine/Femz.htm" Scan by Rob Hansen. Thanks, Rob!

Talking about a panel on "Fandom in the 60s" that morphed into a panel on "Fandom in the 50s" when Bob Silverberg elected to go to the botanical gardens instead, "A strange and moderately wonderful thing happened when we started talking about fannlsh fanzines and sercon fanzines: Ted was rhapsodizing over HYPHEN when Ed Wood boomed from the audience, "I WAS ON THE HYPHEN MAILING LIST AND I USED TO DROP EVERY COPY INTO THE WASTEBASKET WITHOUT EVEN OPENING IT!" Ted told him he was crazy and had no taste and they promptly got into a loud argument that went on for five minutes while I sat there bemused, thinking to myself that this was exactly the sort of thing that used to happen in fandom in the fifties and all the neofans in the audience, like Tom Perry, were seeing history come alive."
--EC Fan Journal, Mike May. Added #6 (May 54). This early comics fanzine is full of familiar names - contributors include Larry Stark, Ted White, and Ron Ellik.

Fanzines Added: Unless otherwise noted, all scans are by Joe Siclari.
--1940s One Shots. Added 1 item: Fan Spectator 1, edited by Ron Maddox (Feb 46). This NYC zine looks like it was planned to be a newzine. We have it in one-shots because Pavlat-Evans says it's a one shot, but Bruce Pelz's list has unnumbered one pagers as well. If we find them, we'll give it a dedicated directory.
--1950s One Shots. Added 2 items: Con-Science, edited by Eric Bentcliffe, Eric Jones and Terry Jeeves (Apr 54). Con-Science is "a not so serious constructive publication dedicated to all those who have fallen at past conventions.". Also added - Confusion 1, edited by Gar Williamson (Sep 52).

--Perryscope, Perry Middlemiss perzine. Added the most recent, #11. Thanks, Perry!
--Quandry Index. Added Laundry 1 to the Quandry index, Lee Shaw aka Lee Hoffman, and with a charming Quandry homage cover page. From Joe Siclari: "Although it drives Edie crazty to do all the work to put up a minor little one-shot fanzine, these items are occaisionally little gems of satire and sometimes fine narrative of travel or even serconess. Laundry is a self-satire from Lee Hoffman that I had to share. I liked LeeH, even when she was indulging the puerile side of her sense of humor like teaching our cat to fetch by with tobacco."

Conpubs: Torcon II. Added Jim Young's Minneapolis in '73 Filksong book to the competitive bid materials of the day. It's also linked from the Filk index. Scan by Joe Siclari.

From Joe Siclari: "Each zine is marked as the last issue of that title and that they were going to be combined as The Ark edited by them both.

YouTube: https://youtu.be/4sv3HriC4NM. Part 2 of the Bjo and John Trimble interview is up. From the YouTube description - "In part 2 of Bjo and John Trimble's interview with Joe Siclari (May 2021), they tell the remarkable story of how they met Gene Roddenberry and became involved in Star Trek. Learn the story of how they started, orchestrated and managed the "Save Star Trek" campaign which resulted in the third year of Star Trek, the original series. Hint: it all started in Clelveland. There's much more in this interview. There are stories of the early days of the SCA, including how it got the name "Society for Creative Anachronism", the day that a Knight of St. Fantony appeared at an SCA event, and the unlikely story of the first coronation of an SCA king. Additionally, you'll hear about costuming, Takumi Shibano and how Gene Roddenberry helped get him to Worldcon (and how Bjo helped Shibano-san learn that his wife spoke English), and Q&A from the attendees."

From Joe Siclari: "Some might not consider this a fanzine because rumor has it that it was paid for by Ray Palmer and Ziff-Davis. However the Shaver Mystery stories were a subject of great controversy in fanzines. So it is of related interest. It definitely was not a money-maker. It seems to fit into the category we later called a semi-prozine. The bibliographies I have seen say there were seven issues which we have. There does seem to be a descrepancy in the numbering. Ex. the Locus checklist has seven issues. It lists Vol.2,#4 but does not have Vol.3,#2. If anyone has a copy of Vol.2,#4, we's like to get a scan of it." If you've been hearing the words "Shaver Mysteries" bruited about, now's your chance to see what all the fuss is over. And the art! McCauley, Finlay...
--TNFF, George Phillies. Added the May 2021 issue of TNFF. Thanks, George!


We have updated the Fanac Names Cross Reference. There are currently 28,671 names in these listings.

YouTube: https://youtu.be/cGAi8CH8ig4  - The Bjo and John Trimble Interview, Part 1, is uploaded to YouTube. From the description:"Bjo and John Trimble sit with Joe Siclari (May 2021) to tell us about their fannish histories. In part 1 of this interview, they talk about how they each found fandom, their ultimate meet-cute under Forry Ackerman's grand piano, Burbee's "Golden Treachery" and more serious topics...The Trimbles changed their part of fandom. Bjo talks about how she revitalized LASFS in the 1950s, and about the beginnings of the convention art show as we know it today (and Seth Johnson's surprising part in that). Fandom is not without its controversies, and the Trimbles also speak about the Breendoggle and Coventry. Part 1 finishes up with anecdotes about Tony Boucher's poker games. In Part 2, the interview will continue with the Trimbles' roles in the Save Star Trek campaign."

Youtube: https://youtu.be/0PE8pcwolOo  Part 2 of the Zoom session interview with Erle and Steve Korshak is now online. Erle is pushing 98. As I was constructing the write up, I realized just how much and clearly Erle had given a picture of the early days of fandom. From the writeup: "Part 2 of his interview is replete with entertaining anecdotes of well known fans and pros in the field such as Aldous Huxley, Charlie Hornig, and Bob Tucker. Erle recounts a sweet tale of Frank R. Paul drawing on stencil, and a charming story of how he himself came to be the model for the Hubert Rogers cover for Heinlein's "Revolt in 2100". You'll also hear convention stories, art stories and more. Best of all, Erle paints a clear picture of what science fiction fandom was like in the early, early days."

YouTube: https://youtu.be/1wrUeYvvzJ8. Last Tuesday, we did a FANAC History Zoom interview of First Fandom stalwart, Erle Korshak. From the YouTube description: Erle Korshak, founder of the legendary Shasta Publishers, instrumental in the second Worldcon in 1940 (Chicon I) and very likely the first SF bookseller, sat with his son, Stephen, and fan historian Joe Siclari for a dive into his 80+ year SF fan career (April 2021). Part 1 of this wide-ranging and entertaining interview covers Erle's early days in fandom beginning in 1934, his experiences at the first Worldcon as a 16 year old with his high school friend, Mark Reinsberg, and how they became the leaders of the 2nd Worldcon, Chicon 1, in 1940. Erle tells numerous anecdotes about some of the famous fans and pros of the period, including Bob Tucker, E.E. "Doc" Smith, Anthony Boucher, L. Ron Hubbard, Robert Heinlein and others. Erle tells wonderful stories of Shasta, including how the Library of Congress made them successful. He recounts in detail the rise, fall and controversies of the small press.

From 1966, we have a financial statement. It has a signature, but I can't make out who signed it. Can anyone decipher it? If so, let me know and I'll put the name of the originator on the index page.
--Harris Miscellaneous Pubs, Chuck Harris. Started an index page for the miscellaneous writings of Chuck Harris. Added 6 items today from 1955-60, including #1 and #2 of his "Swan Song". "Hymen 1" scan provided by Kim Huett. Thanks, Kim!

YouTube: https://youtu.be/UI3TWPGXJ0A. A choice addition today (although they are all choice) - an audio recording of the 1969 GoH speech given by Jack Gaughan at Boskone. The talk is entertaining, and it is so very clear that Jack is among his friends in his chosen place. From the YouTube writeup: "...is both entertaining and thoughtful, interspersed with sharply witty comments. He quotes from Leonardo Da Vinci, and teases his friends, some in the room, including Isaac Asimov, Ed Emsh and Donald Wollheim. He starts with a recounting of the problems faced by female artists like his wife, Phoebe. He tells anecdotes about his experiences as an illustrator, teases Lester del Rey, and compares the lives of artists today to the lives of artists 500 years ago. Jack is frank about his own feelings on science fiction and science fiction illustration. It's chatty, low key, entertaining and comfortable and a marvellous window into an important figure in the field, lost far too soon...Thanks to the New England Science Fiction Society (NESFA) and Rick Kovalcik for providing the recording. Thanks to Andrew Porter for providing photos and to Dr. Gandalf for digitization."

Fanzines Added: Unless otherwise noted, all scans are by Joe Siclari.

--High Points, Elsie Wollheim. Added #2 of this 1945 zine. Since Pavlat-Evans only lists #1, I feel as if we have overachieved.
--Improbable, Vowen Clark. Added 2 issues of this new-to-us title from the 1950s. From #3 - "This brings up a pet peeve of mine. Quite a bit of material has been written, telling just how unfair, rude, discouraging, vicious, and just generally ornery those legend-shrouded figures, known only as BNFs, can be. This is hogwash...pure, unadulterated and unabridged junk. Most of this propaganda is written by neos who have received bad reviews of their pride-and-joy zines or by neos who aspire to join the BNFs by criticising them." There was a review by Bob Tucker in that issue along with material from Guy Terwilleger.
--Metaphysical Review, Bruce Gillespie. Added 4 issues: #2-4 (Nov 84- Jul 85) and #9 (Aug 86). Issue 4 has Don Ashby's story of "The Magic Pudding Club" circa 1975.

Added 21 issues and 2 supplements to complete the run!: #10 (Dec 59), #16 (Apr 60), #32A (May 61), #33 (Jun 61), #66-67 (Apr-May 64), #71 (Oct 64), #73-77 (Dec 64-Apr 65), #79-82A (May-Aug 65), #86 (Feb 66), #90 (Jun 66), and #92-95 (Sep 66-May 68).

We are delighted to report that FANAC.org was given the 2020 FAAn Award for Best Online Achievement at the Sunday, March 28, virtual award Zoom call. Many thanks to all who provided us with this most excellent egoboo!

YouTube: https://youtu.be/8mmkN3fCMrE. Added Part 2 of the Zoom talk by Jim and Greg Benford is now online. From the YouTube writeup: "Jim and Greg Benford continue with their history in science fiction and fandom. They discuss fandom at UCLJ (now UCSD), travelling ghiants, and the talented writers of the Bay Area. There are stories of famous names, from Poul Anderson and Robert Silverberg to Edward Teller, Elon Musk, Martin Rees and Stephen Hawking. The relationship of science fiction to technical advances in weaponry is discussed, and regional differences in fandom. The anecdotes shine, and Greg tells a particularly fine tale about Buzz Aldrin, almost the first man on the moon. To cap it off, there's the Void Boys song, and a little of its history including some comments by Ted White."

Fanzines Added: Unless otherwise noted, all scans are by Joe Siclari.

There are anecdotes about well known fans and writers, about the Texas fan community of the day, and early science fiction conventions.

PDF Replacements: Replaced Bill Danner's one shot "Mallophagan .5" with a searchable PDF. I also moved this to our 1950s One Shot  page, because that's where it belongs. Joe says this was a 1.5 inch fanzine that Bill produced to show off his typesetting skills.

March 10, 2021
Fanzines Added: Unless otherwise noted, all scans are by Joe Siclari.
--The Explorer, Ed Noble. Added 13 issues of this new-to-us title from the early 1950s, the official organ of the ISFCC - the official organ of the International Science Fiction Correspondence club. There's something dicey about the dates or the numbering, but I'm not sure exactly what. From issue #1 - "The purpose of the club ie, of course, to encourage the exchange of ideas and thoughts and methods of the science-fiction world."
--Maelstrom, Bill Plott. Added #7 of this new-to-us title. Bill Plott was a speaker on our History of Southern Fandom zoom call last month.

--Kteic Magazine, Bill Rotsler. Added 11 issues of this new-to-us title. Fancyclopedia 2 (ca 1959) comments on this zine - "First a multi-carboned read-and-pass-on job, later mimeoed. Burbee coined the expression "short-shot" to define it and separate it from the one-shot, but the imitations it provoked were more usually called letter-substitutes, and were circulated by people whose correspondence ran away from them. Kteic was thought a hoax by many -- it was sent to a very limited and select group."
--Les Spinge, Darroll Pardoe. Added 12 issues from 1967-1979. Scans by Mark Olson. Thanks, Mark!

FanHistory Zoom Sessions:
Date and Time: Date and Time: March 27, 2021, 2pm EDT (11AM, 6PM London, 5AM Sunday Sydney)
Our next FanHistory Zoom will be "The Benford Twins, Fandom and the Larger Universe". Jim and Greg Benford became fans in the 1950s, and throughout a lifetime of science, professional writing, and extensive accomplishments, they have remained fans. In this Zoom session, they'll talk about their introduction into fandom, their fandom over the years, and tell stories about the important and interesting people they've met. What influence has fandom had on them? Did relocation change their interactions with fandom? How have their professional lives influenced their fandom? Join us and find out (and expect a few surprises.) To receive a Zoom link, please RSVP to fanac@fanac.org . The current schedule of future Fan History zoom sessions is available at https://fanac.org/zoom.html.

YouTube: https://youtu.be/VSqEmwjpILA. Added the Noreascon 3 (1989) Masquerade. Some of the songs used by the costumers caused a copyright issue with YouTube, so they have been muted. Sorry for that, but better to mute than not put it up at all. The Masquerade video was an hour and a half long, so I've put it online in 2 parts. From the description of part 1: "...In this recording, costumers make their appearance on the big stage, and showcase the physical results of their imaginations and their skills. The costumers range from Novices to Journeymen to Masters, and the themes from silly and playful to very serious...Thanks to Dr. Gandalf for digitizing this recording." You can find part 2 at https://youtu.be/3MTLJo4U42Y.

From Bill Plott with over 60 years of experience to Toni Weisskopf with a mere 40, the speakers share cherished memories and their thoughts on the nature of Southern Fandom. They speak about conventions, both regional and Worldcons, awards and traditions, bigger than life personalities, and fanzines. At the heart of it all, lies the hospitality and inclusiveness of Southern Fandom. There's also a brief appearance by Jim Benford on the topic of his early fanzines, and an interesting Q&A session with the audience."

YouTube: https://youtu.be/3bUiO6jhRWA  Uploaded "Science Fiction as Social Criticism", a half hour interview with Fred Pohl by Fred Lerner, conducted for WKCR in 1963. From the YouTube writeup: Frederik Pohl fields questions on everything from how science fiction covers race relations to religion and advertising in this 1963 audio interview (presented with illustrative pictures). Fred Lerner, noted librarian, bibliographer and historian, was just 17 when he interviewed Frederik Pohl, both a professional science fiction writer of long standing, and one of the earliest science fiction fans. At the time of the interview, in addition to writing, Fred Pohl was editing prominent SF magazines and original anthologies. In this recording, listen for the discussion of his "Space Merchants" to predictions about the advertising industry, his views on fantasy vs science fiction, comments on the best fiction of the period, and even a whiff of "fans are slans". This thoughtful interview provides not only a perspective on a major author in the field, but on a major editor. It's worth noting that this is the second interview Pohl did that day. Interviewer Fred Lerner tells us that "the recording engineer was so interested in what Pohl had to say that he forgot to turn on the recorder. Fred Pohl was gracious and patient enough to repeat the interview!" Thanks to Fred Lerner for providing the recording. Thanks, Fred!

He describes his theory of fandom as an anarchistic meritocracy, his experiences with the Washington Science Fiction Association, and tells wonderful anecdotes about Lee Hoffman. And, from a first hand perspective, he talks about Walter Breen...My favorite quote from this part of the interview - "When I first became a fan, anyone else that was a fan was de facto my friend."

Of these, Leslie wrote eleven, including one song which is a posthumous collaboration with Rudyard Kipling. For decades, Leslie has been a towering presence in the filk world, with some of her songs achieving true iconic status.

There are anecdotes of the New York Fanoclasts and of how the bid for the 1967 NyCon3 came about. Ted discusses "The Club House" column in Amazing Stories, responsible for bringing many into fandom in the early 1970s (including me), and speaks of his many fanzine collaborations, along with challenges along the way."

On Monday, I uploaded Part 1 of one of Harlan Ellison's programs at IguanaCon. It's at https://youtu.be/ws6kFq61DhE. From the description on YouTube: "Guest of Honor Harlan Ellison held forth for hours in "Burning the Phoenix: Remarks, Dark & Light." This audio recording, illustrated with images, is the 1st 40 minutes of that talk. Harlan tells a great story about Avon, talks about The Tonight Show, his script for Asimov's "I, Robot" and about his plans for "The Last Dangerous Visions". Harlan was a charismatic, funny, witty speaker, and at this event, he is talking to a large audience of his appreciative and enthusiastic fans. "

We're planning our 2nd Fanhistory Zoom for January. Scheduled for January 23, at 4PM EST, we will have an interview of Ted White by John D. Berry. Ted has been a fan for almost 70 years, and there's a lot to talk about. Please send your RSVPs to fanac@fanac.org, and I'll send you the link a day or two before the talk.

Two of the largest fanzines ever produced are now up on FANAC.org. See the listings below for Outworlds 71 and for Warhoon 28. These are enormous, worthwhile labors of love and you should read them.

One of the comments that came in response to one of the splash pages was that we should keep the BNF splash pages permanently somewhere. Great idea. We're saving them in - https://fanac.org/fanzines/FANAC_BNF_pages/  . Warning: These are a point in time snapshot of materials we have on line when the splash pages were done. They won't be updated as we put up new material, although they may be updated a little later. Example: Since her splash page was up last September, we've added LeeH's perzine "Self-Preservation" and her "Inadequate Time Machine".
