| SFAA – Science Fiction Advancement Association, one of the organizations that blossomed at the beginning of the First Transition. Its founder was C. Hamilton Bloomer; the later president, Raymond van Houten, signed it over in a dormant state to New Fandom, of which it provided the basic membership, except that certain Wollheimists were not accepted by New Fandom. |
