As a tribute to Rog Phillips, the Golden Age of Science Fiction writer, here are all 67 appearances of his fanzine review column from the late 1940s and early 1950s, The Club House, carefully transcribed and edited for consistency, as they originally appeared inside the pages of Amazing Stories, Universe, and Other Words, with over 258,000 words in nearly 3,000 endnotes annotating the nearly 311,000 words he wrote in total for all of his columns, complete with an index containing over 5,800 single items, and more than 14,000 individual entries. Here the reader will find the context and perspective to understand the post-WWII generation of science fiction fandom. You’ll come to know all the players, who they were, what they did, and what they wrote in their fanzines. Finally, you’ll come to see those who made science fiction, and science fiction fandom into what it has become in the twenty-first century.
