Room 203, 213 West 53rd St.
New York, NY, USA
Science Fiction Convention
A one-day convention held May 12, 1957 in Room 203 at 213 West 53rd St, Manhattan. There was no GoH - initially, the Lunacon was seen as a replacement for a large social meeting such as an annual party. (The name "ConFusion" was considered, but George Nims Raybin come up with "Lunacon".)
Originally, the Barrons (the people who did the sound effects for Forbidden Planet) were to be the main speakers, but the night before the convention, substituting Lester del Rey was discussed.
