FANSCENE 2

COVER BY: Mark Wayne Barrett

My own fanzine includes many articles on the history of the Comic Convention scene in the UK. It includes much more information about the Conventions themselves, as well as about the booklets produced.

"I apologise for the hap-hazard appearance of this programme, but the original stencils are still in the possession of Her Majesty the Queen somewhere between Stockport and Birmingham thanks to her servants the GPO. And this hastely [sic] conceived substitute was prepared two hours prior to the convention”

From the introduction to the 1968 replacement booklet, by Phil Clarke
