The Ackermansion was amazing!

Wish I could have visited. With the exception of Ray Bradbury everyone from the Golden Age is now gone.

Not quite. There are still a few "active" members of First Fandom around. To qualify as "active" you must have been active in Fandom before 1939 (published a fanzine, wrote to magazines, went to 'cons, etc.)

I'm editor of SCIENTIFICTION, the newsletter of First Fandom. I'm inviting anyone who has met or knew Forry to write a short appreciation for the next issue. Send it to me via Private Reply.

I'm an Associate Member of First Fandom. My first fanac was in 1949, so I've missed the cutoff for being an active member. Anyone who was active in Fandom for more than 30 years is eligible for Associate Member.
