From Fancyclopedia 2, ca. 1959 |
Lynn Hickman organized this club for people who were stared at "as though (they) were a little monster or something" when they left a newsstand carrying an stf magazine. Group aim, Hickman said, was to promote stfsy reading so that fans wouldn't be regarded as "something apart". Some locals were set up, and several sectional conferences were held (including one in New York City, July 1952) but main activity was publishing TLMA, the club magazine, edited by Hickman. The organization lasted from mid-51 to the end of '52, when it was suspended; Hickman claimed 365 members at the end. |

This is a club page. Please extend it by adding information about when and where the club met, when and by whom it was founded, how long it was active, notable accomplishments, well-known members, clubzines, any conventions it ran, external links to the club's website, other club pages, etc.
When there's a floreat (Fl.), this indicates the time or times for which we have found evidence that the club existed. This is probably not going to represent the club's full lifetime, so please update it if you can! |
