(???? – )

S. Rick Dalton was a UK fan from Leeds active from 1940s into at least the 1970s. He was a member of the British Fantasy Library (BFL), the Science Fantasy Society (SFS), the NFFF and the BSFA. He was a member of Loncon II in 1965.

Dalton seems to have encountered fandom through the BFL around 1947. He joined the SFS around 1949 and is listed as a member in Science Fantasy News #2 in March, and the NFFF at about the same time. He was a member of the Supermancon in 1954 but it's not known if he was present. He joined the BSFA in the early 1960s (he appears on a membership list in Vector #19, May 1963) and served on its council from some point in the late 1960s until well into the 1970s.

He is almost invariably referred to as S. R. Dalton but Skyrack #13 provides 'Rick' for the initial R although #59 gives it as 'Rik'.
