Transcript | SEACON'79 LIMITED 37TH WORLD SCIENCE FICTION CONVENTION METROPOLE HOTEL, BRIGHTON, ENGLAND 23 - 27 AUGUST 1979 Tel. (01) 397 6514, Reply to: Rob Jackson, 8 Lavender Rd., West Ewell, Epsom, Surrey KT19 9EB, U.K. 29 April 1979. Dear Mr. Leiber, It is usual, indeed traditional, for the Guest of Honour at a major sf convention to act as one of the judges in the Costume Ball; with your theatrical background and knowledge you are particularly well qualified to judge a costume ball anyway, so it's doubly approp riate for you to take this role at Seacon. The Fancy Dress Competition (as we call a costume ball over here) will be on Saturday night at 8 pm, with a preliminary run- through for photographers and for the judges to get a close look at costume details at 7 pm. WeTre delighted to ask you to be one of the judges; we donTt expect it will be too onerous a task compared with some of the other ones expected of a Guest of HonourJ Best wishes, Yours sincerely c Rob & Coral Jackson Seacon '79 Fancy Dress Competition organisers Fritz Leiber, 565 Geary St, Apt. 604 San Francisco, CA 94102, U.S.A.
