A Collating Party! Cats Included
This September 1978 description by Evelyn J. Walton describes its collating party:
Announcing the FIRST Annual SHADO Handbook Printing and Collating Extravaganza!
Yes. folks. tha big handbook is really going to happen, and I, for one, can use some help getting it all put together, so all you Southern Caiifonia operatives who have secretly habored an insane urge to got involved in the mysterious intrigue of SHADO internal operations here's your golden opportunity. The festivilies are scheduled to get underway at [street address redacted] Hollywood, Calif. beginning at 10 A.M. (or thereabouts), baturday, October 21, and continuing to who knows when . If further work remains to be done. operations will reconvene same time, same station the following day Non-alcoholic refreshments will be provided, bring yowr own poison if you like. There's a 24-hour grocery just down the block for midnight (on midday) raids, should the need arise.
Pound the clock entertainment featuring UFO, Prisoner, Man From Atlantis, and Fantastic journey videotapes will be provided. The apartment is inhabited by four cats, so those of you with fur allergies be forewarned. Come prepared to be ink-stained. The mimeo is a filthy machine if we end up having to use it (I'm still trying to pull off the finances to get it offset, but it's still touch and go)
If you"re planning on coming, please give me a little warning, preferably through the mail since I'm hard to catch at home, but For those of you who have no phone phobias, my number is [redacted], with the best times to catch me between 11 PM and 1 AM or between 6 and 10 AM. It should be an interesting experience and I'm looking forward to having a little help and meeting some of you. As further inducement (as if the above benefits aren't enough), everyone who shows up and pitches in will receive a formal acknowledgment in the next Status Peport. [1]
