Just finished updating the @norwescon historical archives with a new, high-quality scan of an original 1978 #NWC1 program book autographed by #TheodoreSturgeon, #AlanENourse, #PoulAnderson, #JFBone, #VondaNMcIntyre, #HWarnerMunn, #SydneyJVanScyoc, and #JohnVarley!

This is a really neat bit of #Norwescon history, and the first time I'd seen one of these in person. I knew they were small, but I hadn't really realized how small until I got to scan this one in.
Some technical notes: The book was scanned in at 300 dpi, OCR'd and manually corrected for accuracy, and the final PDF is fully tagged for accessibility and verified with PAC as meeting both PDF/UA and WCAG 2.2 standards.
