Fanatics

A sercon club in the Oakland, CA which was formed in the mid-60s. It met for a time at Chelsea Quinn Yarbro's house (meeting on the evening of the third Tuesday of the month and sometimes on the 1st Tuesday as well) and published a clubzine The Voice of the Gryphon.

It became visible to fandom at large when some of its members drove the shuttle bus at Baycon, the 1968 Worldcon in Oakland. It became less sercon as it got older, and it lasted until about 1980.

This is a club page. Please extend it by adding information about when and where the club met, when and by whom it was founded, how long it was active, notable accomplishments, well-known members, clubzines, any conventions it ran, external links to the club's website, other club pages, etc. When there's a floreat (Fl.), this indicates the time or times for which we have found evidence that the club existed. This is probably not going to represent the club's full lifetime, so please update it if you can!
