Begun in March 1973 as a part of the national Star Trek Association for Revival, STAR OKC was central Oklahoma's most influential seedbed of fandom through 2005. ..... This blog exists to document fandom in central Oklahoma. The area was home to PsurrealCon/PseudoCon, ThunderCon, and Soonercon (née SoonerCon) -- all begun or supported by members of STAR OKC.

Visit 1976 and S.T.A.R.Base OKC
As you may imagine, these are from that storied US Bicentennial year. Also before yours truly came upon the scene, so I can provide no further context.
No cracks about the spelling, please. These were high-school kids, and it took a lot of time to stencil those letters, in the days when 'desktop publishing" involved a typewriter and money for the library's copier.

Maybe the bottom flier too,.. but the top flier was mine / I shared with you years ago; the note in handwriting at top is mine. I picked it up at WinterCon 1975 (my first "con", though mostly an OAF flea market with movies & two guests, one being Spanky "Our Gang" McFarland, my mom drove me to and dropped off for a few hours. Also first chance I ever saw the bloopers (that's TOS bloopers).
ReplyDeleteI wrote to Jennifer and corresponded before I ever met her, but she was gone within another year or two: yes, high school kids. Including me.
In the late 1980s I reached the Jennifer Reynolds abode by phone to invite and STAR reminiscences. Somebody took my contact info but I was never called back.
