Preface to the Initial Edition of Fancyclopedia II (1959).

1960 Supplement

The year after Fancyclopedia 2 was published, editor Dick Eney had received enough comments and correction that he published a 19-page supplement. It contained around 200 corrections and additions. It was published as Operation Crifanac CLXXVII and sold for 20 cents.

The complete supplement has been added to Fancy 3.

The Rejected Canon

This may be two publications:

First, a 25-page, 1960 apazine for OMPA listing material material from Fancy 1 which Eney proposed to leave out of Fancy 2.

And, second, a 16-page, 1962 one-shot by Eney containing entries from Fancyclopedia 1 he did leave out of Fancy 2, online here.
