The Ghost of Futures Past...

James Lileks gives us an interesting look at what SF Fandom was like in the past complete with prime examples of the sort of Reader Service the fans had back then. Those who would like to take another look at that time via fiction might enjoy reading a novel called What Mad Universe?"" by Frederic Brown which is its own way was the "Fallen Angels" of that day. ^_^
