Call for Memorabilia and More: Bouchercon 50!

Bouchercon 2019 (the World Mystery Convention) which will be held in Dallas, Texas, this year, October 31-November 3, and the organizers have put out a call for Memorabilia and More. Bouchercon will be 50!

***

We are concentrating on the history of our first fifty years. If you have and are willing to donate historical programs, bags, buttons, pictures, Anthony Awards, mementos or other articles for display, please contact Carol Puckett, Bouchercon 2019 Chair and a member of the Bouchercon National History Committee at BCon2019@gmail.com. 

Note that we are hoping to include some of these articles in an archive that we are planning to establish to continue to honor the history of Bouchercon. If you are a former Guest of Honor, Anthony Award winner, or standing committee/board chair, we would like to acknowledge and honor you in Dallas. We will have historical displays recognizing you and will pay special tribute during our convention events. 

If you have registered, thank you. If you have not registered, I would like to extend a personal invitation to do so for Bouchercon 50. We are eager to welcome every fan to Bouchercon in Dallas. If you have any questions about the Dallas Bouchercon convention, please contact us.
