From Fancyclopedia 3

A fanzine published by Cat Ocel and Mark Riley. The name is Sercon spelled backwards. Officially from "The Nocres SF Social Club", but the first two issues displayed the logo of the "Minneapolis Science Fiction Society".

Issue #1 specified the goals: "We intend to talk about science fiction and fandom in their many forms. We will cover fandom, mainly in con reports. We won't review fanzines or most books. We will list fanzine information [for other fanzines]. We won't print LoC's."

Standard quarto 8/5" X 11" for issues 1-2. #4 is octavo (5.5" x 11", folded letter). #5 is folded legal paper, hence 5.5" X 7", but the outer wrapper is 3" longer with a folded flap.
