Midlands Science-Fiction Convention Report

The Midlands Science-Fiction Convention Report was a series of effectively progress reports issued by R. Rowland Johnson for The Midvention. They were distributed as riders alongside Futurian War Digest. They are notable for being likely the first progress reports issued by a UK convention.

There were three reports preceded by an unnumbered flyer. The British Fanzine Bibliography says they were all two-page but #1, the only one that's been traced as of 2024, was only a single page. It lists the committee, the venue city (Birmingham, although it would later be changed to Leicester), and that there would likely be a fee of 5/- (five shillings) although it would be collected later.
