For Anna...
Those of you know in Stargate SG-1 fandom know, we're
sure, that Anna (Yum@) of StargateFan has been ill for some time. (For
those of you who may have found your way here from other fandoms, Anna is
one of those tireless people in fandom who give much to the rest of us who
share her love of all things Stargate SG-1.)
As you can imagine, such a long term illness has been a financial stress
on her and her family. A group of her longtime friends is embarking upon a
fund raising effort to help her out. One such effort will be a zine in her
honor, organized by Jmas at the
Ancientsgate website.
This auction is another such effort. No, this is NOT a charity auction --
this is an auction of friends helping friends, one of the things that
fandom is all about.
We've all searched our shelves, checked the drawers, rifled through the
filing cabinets to see whether we'd have anything that might tempt our
fellow fans to give new homes to the things we've collected over time.
We've managed to find a few things... trinkets and previously loved zines,
magazines and photos; a camcorder, a few rare promo items from past
shows and films... These and other items will find their way to our auction.
Oh, and thanks to the wonderful people at Legends Memorabilia, very
shortly we'll have some very special items from the set of Stargate SG-1.
We kicked off part 1 of the auction on 6 March, part 2 is
now in progress, with more items to be added in a day or so.
We hope you will find something to tempt you, and invite you - and ask you
- to spread the word of our little effort.
Now...
