The Tucker Bag

Also known as The Tucker Fund, The Tucker Bag was a one-off fan fund to bring Bob Tucker to Aussiecon in 1975. The Really Incompleat Bob Tucker was published as part of this. The administrators of the fund were Bruce Gillespie and Jackie Franke.

Among the items auctioned for the fund was one of Bob’s socks. Bruce Townley bought it for $10 in a fundraiser orchestrated by Donn Brazier in Title.

An occasional fan fund newszine, Tucker Bag edited by Jackie Franke, was published to raise funds. It was sent to contributors to The Tucker Bag or was available for a 10¢ stamp.
