Description: ACKERMANSION MEMORIES #11 edited by James Van Hise (January 2020) 8 1/2 x 11, 82 pages plus covers. Fanzine format. Side-stapled. Brand new. Forrest J Ackerman was one of the earliest contributors to Science Fiction fandom and remained active throughout his life. While most people are familiar with his work in Famous Monsters and Spacemen, much of his other work appeared in fanzines and magazines now long out of print. This issue reprints obscure material by Forrest Ackerman as well as material about Ray Bradbury, whom Forry first befriended in 1938. I have been collecting old fanzines for years, especially issues with material by and about Forrest Ackerman (whom I first met in 1982 and knew for the rest of his life as I visited the Ackermansion many times). This is the eleventh issue since I started editing and publishing these in 2015. Back issues #1-10 are available individually and in sets. Material in this issue by (and sometimes about) Forrest J Ackerman includes: 1) REPRINT OF THE COVER OF SHANGRI L’AFFAIRES #35 (March 1947) 2) SLAN ORIGINS by A.E. van Vogt [SHANGRI L’AFFAIRES #35 (March 1947)] 3) STATION EBC by Forry Ackerman [SHANGRI L’AFFAIRES #35 (March 1947)] 4) JUST A MINUTE: LASFS MINUTES by Tigrina [SHANGRI L’AFFAIRES #35 (March 1947)] 5) DONALD A.
