Shavertron: The Pre-Gafiation Years (Volume 3)

Richard Toronto
4.9/5 (31786 ratings)
Description:Shavertron, "Your Only Source of Post-Deluge Shaverania" returns with volume 3 of the Shaver Mystery fanzine of the Atomic Age, issues 18 through 23. Science fiction fan clubs have cranked out thousands of fanzines since Ray Palmer mimeographed the first one in 1930. Out of these thousands, only three were dedicated to the science fiction phenomenon known as the Shaver Mystery. There was a reason for this: SF fandom blackballed the Shaver Mystery and its namesake, Richard Shaver from the SF community. The first Shaver Mystery fanzine to enter this hostile environment was The Shaver Mystery Magazine. Produced by The Shaver Mystery Club, it was typeset and printed on an offset press. It ran for nine issues (a 10th is rumored to exist) between 1947 and 1949. The Shaver Mystery Club Letterzine followed shortly thereafter. Typed and mimeographed by a small group of Shaver fans, it produced 16 issues. But by 1949, Dick Shaver abdicated as leader of the Shaverism movement to become a farmer. Without the Shaver Mystery Club to support his fan base, the notion of a Shaver fanzine died out for good. Or so everyone thought. Fast forward to 1979, the year the first issue of Shavertron: The Only Source of Post-Deluge Shaverania rolled off a modern Xerox machine. The world had changed in the 29 years since the last Shaver Mystery fanzine saw print. Richard Shaver was no longer among the living and the disco era was well underway. Then a young fanzine editor named Richard Toronto offered his interpretation of the Shaver Mystery for a post-modern age. Shavertron became the longest-lived Shaver Mystery fanzine, with 29 issues to its credit. Out-of-print for nearly 25 years, this elusive link to the Shaver Mystery saga is now being offered in four volumes.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
