Created with the blessing of Edgar Rice Burroughs himself, the Bulletin came to life as a small mimeographed fanzine — the contents of which were belted out on an old typewriter perched on the hood of Vern’s car when he was on the road and was sent free to curious Burroughs enthusiasts.\n\nOne of the curious was Vincent Starrett, the influential Chicago Tribune book critic, and his review brought in a flood of requests from around the world. By 1960, the readership had grown to such an extent that Vern and other fans, at the World Science Fiction Convention in Pittsburgh that year, decided to create an organized literary society, the Burroughs Bibliophiles; the Bulletin became the group’s official organ. The mission of the Bibliophiles, then as now, is to promote an understanding and appreciation of the great American author, Edgar Rice Burroughs.\n\nBoth the Bibliophiles and the Bulletin foundered in 1987 with Vern’s death, but were revived by \u003cstrong\u003eGeorge McWhorter\u003c\/strong\u003e in 1990. As curator of the Edgar Rice Burroughs Memorial Collection at the University of Louisville, McWhorter was ideally suited to helm the reborn Bulletin. What started out as a simple mimeographed fanzine has become a glossy, professionally produced quarterly journal.\n\n\u003cb\u003eOut Of Print.
