Page Eleven [?] May 1940 "[YOUR?] VIEWS" Your lastest MSA BULLETIN was a good paper and had no little merit in it. How can you run things on 5p a week, even if all members paid? How can members in the club receive these additional ethings like membership cards, special Bulletins, MSA stickers, etc? I'm afraid 5c a week is inadequete to meet the requirements of this club? Right? (As a matter of fact, 5c a week is very little. At present all we can hope to do is build up the Bulletin and get enough outside subscriptions to carry it; then we can do more for the members.-ed.) Well , anyway, I think nyou are doing a good job and I wish you success for the future. I am interested in that "New Adam" offer and will send the postage next week. (That'll be fine, Phil. How about more members taking advantage of this offer and of Norm Stanley's lending library? -ed.) [stamped] Phil Gilbert [/stamped] York Beach, Maine & "THEIRS" I was interested in the MSA, and therefore I appreciated those bits of information on all phases of the organization. I liked the Rogue's Gallery immensely. You might try getting all your information organized. By this I mean that you should have all the important news on the first few pages. Take all the Pro Mag news and you have a column well worth looking into. All in all, I liked your mag. Richard B. Grain Weehawkin, New Jersey Thanks so very much for the copy of the MSA BULLETIN. It's the first I've seen and I'm sincerely grateful to you for it. From the contents you fellows up there among the big trees must have one hell of a swell fantasy group. [stamped] Rich [/stamped] (Frank) State College, Pa. Congratulations on MSA BULLETIN. Very bright, very newsy, and very attractively gotten up. You and your co-workers can award yourselves with a flock of A's on this job. Another item which interested me - and will interest all readers, I believe -- was that on page 6, col. 2, referring to the new management of Weird Tales and their discontinuance of the weird story reprints, using "true psychic experiences" in their place. Of course I agree with the comment: "This may be progress. But if so, deliver me from progress." Seabury Quinn Washington, D. C. Yea, brother. Verily, that paper thou has acquired is ye batt's eyeballes. The April BULL, using it, looks fine. I hope FANFARE does as well. [stamped] Art [/stamped] (Widner) Bryantville, Mass. (cont. next page.)
