Saw this at Geekosystem, and had to share.
These are photos from Westercon 33, which was held at the Hyatt House Hotel in Los Angeles in 1980.
They’re totally worth checking out, if only to see that the essence of a convention — celebrating this thing that we love — hasn’t changed a bit in over thirty years.
