Quotecards Anyone? was a 24-page, single-issue fanzine published in May 1964 in the UK by Langdon Jones. It was devoted to a report of Repetercon, the 1964 Eastercon.
It was described as 'a product of Ealing Fandom' and was provided free to those on the Tensor mailing list; to all others the price was 1/- or 15¢. Jones introduced it with context:
Before I start this Con-report, I'd better make one or two things clear. Firstly, if you want to read a detailed exposition of the programme, you night as well put this thing down straight away, because that's not what you're going to get. This is just for people who want to know what someone else's Con was like. Secondly, I took no notes at all, so it's quite possible that I may have left out one or two names, or forgotten one or two incidents that deserve to be recorded. For this in advance I apologise. Thirdly, this will be a very personal Con-report, for the simple reason that – well – it was a very personal Con. By this I mean that the Con in retrospect, consisted of feelings, thoughts and – quite often – events, that happened to me only, or to only one or two others. Also I missed quite a lot of the programme, so this precludes the documentary approach. Anyway, let me cast my memory painfully back...
Quotecards Anyone? was joint winner of the "Best Report" category in the Skyrack Poll for 1964.
