32nd Annual Los Angeles Vintage Paperback Collectors Show
These one day sci-fi pulp paperback shows are not only super fun for shopping and hanging out, but we get so many books signed! I’ve been to a few of these now and I’m always amazed at the number of authors and illustrators who come, and not all of them are local. 78 tables Baby! We weren’t able to see everyone, but the website listed:
Karen Anderson, Ann Bannon, Brett Battles, Peter Beagle, Gary Brandner, Stuart Byrne, Louis Charbonneau, John DeChancie, L.J. Dopp, Dennis Etchison, Fred Evans, Laura Freas, Bill George, David Gerrold, Mel Gilden, James C. Glass, Tony Gleeson, Donald Glut, Cody Goodfellow, Brett Halsey, Barbara Hambly, Denise Hamilton, Odie Hawkins, Michael Hemmingson, George Clayton Johnson, Earl Kemp, Bruce Kimmel, Dani & Eytan Kollin, Michael Kurland, Terrill Lankford, Gary Lovisi, Richard Lupoff, Richard Christian Matheson, Jan Merlin, Larry Niven, William F. Nolan, Charles Nuetzel, Patrick O’Connor, Jerry Pournelle, Tim Powers, Robert Reginald, John Skipp, Harry Turtledove, Stephen Woodworth
Every time we’ve seen Peter Beagle (The Last Unicorn) the past couple years, his main editor Connor Cochran is right by his side. Bill asked Connor “Freff” to sign his many copies of the D’Arc Tangents.
