The Bloomington Conference was an early convention held November 22, 1942, at Bob Tucker's house in Bloomington, IL. It seems to have been a fan gathering-party-poker game. (Making it, for the time, a respectable convention!)

Tucker describes it in two pages of "minutes" in Le Zombie #50 pp 9-10 (online here). It is possible that the minutes are not entirely fictional.

Attendance was Bob Tucker, Niel DeJack, Ed Connor, Frank Robinson, Al Ashley, Tommy Tomkins, Walt Liebscher, Abby Lu Ashley and Jane Tucker.
