Discovering the first place of publication for his First World Fantasy Convention report led me to a new booklet cover featuring Lovecraft, new in the sense that I hadn’t seen it before. The 52-page booklet had what appear to be three heavyweight convention reports all focused around musings on Lovecraft and Providence. I wouldn’t mind reading it but I see it’s become mildly collectable, so the price is now beyond me, and it’s not yet on Archive.org.
