Arthur Thomson (fanzines)

Source: Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Arthur Thomson (1927–1990) was a British artist and writer, a highly regarded member of British

TransAtlantic Fan Fund in 1964 [2] and visited the United States (an event he wrote up for the following year's ATom Abroad [3]). Thomson was nominated five times for the Hugo Award for Best Fan Artist
, but never won.

Nearly two decades after his death, Thomson's distinctive artwork still appears in such fanzines as the Hugo-nominated, Nova Award-winning Banana Wings. After Thomson won the 2000 Rotsler Award, it was decided not to present the Rotsler posthumously again.[4]
