There are many allusions to the 28 August–1 September 1969 Worldcon in St. Louis at the Chase Park Plaza.
Well, gang - here we come again! Many of you probably thought we'd never be more than a one shot, but you should only know to what lengths we exhibitionists will go to put our thing out. However, if you imagine that I enjoy setting the type on this scandalous sheet, well, you'll just have to 9.et to know me better!
