Archon
A regional convention held in St. Louis, MO, from 1977 and run by the St. Louis SF Society. They used to give out the Archon Hall of Fame Award and the Nickelberry Award.
Archon Hall of Fame Award[edit]
The Archon Hall of Fame Award was established to recognize outstanding contributions to Archon by fans and professionals who are not members of the convention staff or committee.
It appears that this is a different award from the Tucker Award (which see) given by more-or-less the same group starting in 1985. On the other hand, the 1985 award was also begun with a Grand Master award to Bob Tucker and three annual awards. Who knows? For now we will document these as separate awards. Note, however, that they were both awarded at Tuckercon in 2007, suggesting they were separate awards
The Archon Hall of Fame Award was instituted in 1997, with a special Grand Master Hall of Fame award going to Wilson "Bob" Tucker.
