Take a trip down memory lane with these photos from and leading up to Confiction 1990.
At ConFiction John van Duin was the spokesman to the Dutch and international press with Johan-Martijn Flaton – helping out many Dutch conventions to promote themselves and worked as editor and editor-in-chief for various magazines.
In 1990 Angélique was the sounding board for the committee and also took care of Childcare at the convention. Now she feeds the never ending hunger of people for information on various subjects on Social media.
Without his input we would not have had such great publications, not only for ConFiction 1990 but also for a number of British SF worldcons, the last one LonCon 3 in 2014.
Known for his hate- and love relationship with Dbase 2.4 and 3.0 during ConFiction 1990, Larry was responsible for the database and membership handling before and during the convention.
