What to Do at ThunderCon 1

This is the programming schedule.

The original is two columns on a vertical 14-x-17-inch sheet.  The Teddy Harvia cartoon above takes up about a third of the second page.  No, there's not a caption.  Why don't you write one?

See you soon with more from May-June, 1991!
 

More from ThunderCon 1 in 1991

Howdy friends, here are some scans from ThunderCon 1, which took place at OKC's Central Plaza Hotel (now it's a Clarion of some kind).

Yes, that's a very busy flyer.  And if I had me say, I would have pointed out that on the front side, "make-up" appears twice, once with the correct hyphen and once without.  You'll also see that the Tentative Guest was emphatically scratched out.

Courtesy of our lamented brother Paul Cherry, here is his badge.

I was Video Chair, so you may blame me for the eclectic schedule.  Yes, it was typed (by me) and dummied up with boffo art by Kevin Hopkins, resident artistic genius.

Those of a certain age will recall the OTHER name for ThunderCon:  LMC, "Larry's Media Con."

More to come next week!  Tell your friends!
   

Nuthin' But a Bunch o' Trekkies!

Well, I was going to post a bunch of scans from 1991's ThunderCon 1.  But the thumb drive ate 'em.

Until then, here's a preview, courtesy of the Dallas Morning News.

This was in the Saturday, June 1st edition.  This means the AP writer, one Ellen Knickmeyer, filed her story Friday night.  She has since become an international writer for the WSJ, working from Africa and the Middle East.

Fans Dianna Hopkins, Mike Ferguson, and Kimber Civyer are quoted.  To be honest, it was not until the time of this post that I read down the article and noticed that my table in the Dealers' Room was mentioned.

I hope to bring you more soon from 1991's ThunderCon 1, spearheaded by ThunderChief Larry Nemecek.
