Postcard Flyer for SoonerCon 2006 -- The Bold Experiment!

I just came across this postcard flyer as a bookmark in a book I read in 2006.

I did not remember this flyer.  The physical card has some writing on the backside, which I have clumsily tried to remove.

What a big gamble this was in 2006!  2006 chair Jerry Wall said it was nagging from John Hughes and me that prompted his decision to start a con -- and I got acquiescence from the original's founders to use the name.  A legend REBORN!

Were you there?

  

Happy October from 1984!

The October, 1984 Galactic Gazette.

The cute Halloween cover art is by 1984 Prez Tamara Baker.

Tamara is the new Prez because 1984's first Prez, Larry Jones, bugged out.  The next Prez, the wonderful Tammy Bothel, was in high school and didn't feel up to giving STAR the attention it demanded (take that description as you will).  So the once-humble Secretary ascended upon high (not the first time I believe).

You're not missing anything by not being able to read my book review of Melinda Snodgrass's STAR TREK novel The Tears of the Singers.  Just by the title, you know it's depressing fangirl stuff.

Filler is not one of my inventions, as documented above.

As seen above and forgotten until now, yours truly was harangued into becoming the Prez of Vice, one of myriads of times he held such august positions.

This was a proposed revamp (and veritable streamlined beauty) of the STAR OKC constitution.

The Constitution-class constitution concludes, and this month's GG fades into the sunset.

See you out there hoppin' galaxies!

  

Two Flyers from the 1980s

This blue flyer, with art by JR Daniels, looks like one of those Mac-designed publications.   I don't know who produced it.

In the art in the bottom left-hand corner, L-R, are Paul Cherry (RIP), Mike Moery, and Paul "Pablo" Stewart.  I can't read the signature -- any suggestions?

See ya round the galaxy!  That's all for now!
