IF YOU LAUGHED AT THORNE SMITH ** SNICKERED AT H. ALLEN SMITH ** ROARED AT LUCIUS BEEBE ** THEN YOU CAN'T HELP BUT LIKE THAT NEW FANZINE ** [underline] D I A B L E R I E Take for instance, that grand old man of fantasy - Thorn Smith -- you'll be able to draw a neat parallel between his works and Lea's KING OF THE GAY PLACES. Or, if you prefer subtle ribaldry -- H. Allen Smith -- then don't miss Crang Valdeyer's OUT TWO DIMENSIONAL ANCESTORS. To split a gut laughing when we received this manuscript. And if you don't do the same - there's no hope for you. And of course there is Lucius Beebe, that wordy columnist of NYC - if you enjoy him, then you'll like Watson's LIES THERE A COUNTRY. Plenty of humor in this item, even if you do need a dictionary close at hand when you sit down to read it. And that isn't all -- Geo Ebey drags everyone in stfiction fandom through the roller, including the editors of the magazine you're reading now. These attacks are perpetrated in DIRTY OLD KEPNER -- who is the brunt of many a good joke And of course there's an editorial - - it starts out exactly like this: Oh - how well I do remember It was in one bleak September That each separate plastered member Lay in a sodden heap upon the floor You should have gotten the idea by now -- you're is for a riotous time when you read: 5[cents symbol] [underline] d i a b l e r i e 5[cents symbol] from: B I L L W A T S O N 1299 California St San Francisco -- 9 California
