From Fancyclopedia 2, ca. 1959

or Checklist R. D. Swisher began, and Bill Evans and Bob Pavlat continued, the project of making a listing of all the fanzines that have ever appeared anywhere. This monstrous [purely in a physical sense, of course] job is probably the most difficult project ever carried out in Fandom.
