The reverberations of that Conreport of mine have been wringing in my ears for weeks.
1951 December, Walter Alexander Willis, “The Harp That Once or Twice”, in Quandry, number 16, archived from the original on 07 Jun 2011As various other conreports have indicated, the comments of the audience during this show were rich in fannish humour.
1952 October, Fred J. Robinson, “Contemplations, part 2”, in Straight Up, volume 1, number 5There are a few pages of fascinating letters and a short convention report by Walter Breen, apart from short articles by Charles Wells, John Baxter and James Blish. Look, don’t let that description of Breen’s conreport throw you. If you like detailed convention reports, this near-perfect blow by blow description of the ChiCon should delight you, no less, all forty odd pages of it.
