British Amateur Science Fiction Foundation
The British Amateur Science Fiction Foundation was created in 1953 by Ken Slater and announced in the Operation Fantast Handbook for 1953. It was intended as 'a repository for all amateur publications from all over the world', with material both donated and loaned. Slater kick-started the process by donating a two-foot stack of fanzines. the Foundation would involve a reference library and provide 'independent proof of copyright for an amateur publisher'. Dave Gardner, John Roles, and Norman Shorrock were involved but it all came to nothing.
