RAMBLING WITH COLLECTORS It was the highlight of our first two issues, the one original idea we had. Every reader who commented on the mag placed it first above all else as the best thing in each issue. Yet this issue does not have this feature -- the reason? Lack of cooperation. Everyone was content to say it was a swell feature, but do no more. What was RAMBLING WITH COLLECTORS? Well, it was a feature made up of extracts of letters to us that contained something of interest to collectors of fantasy fiction that was made up of sayings by experts in every line of fandom. I had planed on a feature where, on one or two pages, a fan could get as much diverse information on every phase of stfantasy as he could get from a regular fanzine. I had believed that after I first got it rolling, it would prove unnecessary to glean my latter file for information, but that it would come in from interested fen. Ah; another plan, nobley started has met an ignominious end. Another victim of unresponsiveness. the editors: Well, fans this is the end of the trail, it seems. We're going to take a crack at the army about the time when you're reading this. The army medicos bounded us once before, so, though we expect to pass, we wont be knocked over with surprise if they give us the heave-ho again. In either case, you haven't heard the last of us yet. If we do pass, maybe some enerjetic fan will publish this zine. We haven't heard as yet how Cockroft is, if he gets better, he may again to try to pub AA. So for a while everything is on an "if" basis. Bill Danner's got us interested in printing. If we're rejected, who knows, AA might come out printed? WE wont make any definate statements, you always regret three-forths of them you do make. this is THE END OF THE END (that's one of those definate statements) -- Page 33 --
