Fred Galvin submitted a cite from a 1962 reprint of Robert Bloch's "I'll Fry Tomorrow". We would be interested in verification in its original publication (Science Fiction Five-Yearly #1, November-December, 1956). Fred Galvin submitted cites from the 1959 "Fancyclopedia II" by Dick Eney. Fred Galvin submitted a cite from PROFANITY #7 (February 1960), which quoted F. Towner Laney writing in FANDANGO 23 (1949); we would be interested in verification from the original publication. Fred Galvin submitted a 1969 cite from Harry Warner's "All Our Yesterdays". Bill Mullins submitted a September 1950 cite from the fanzine "Spacewarp" #42. We would like cites of any date from other sources. |
