Scope and content
Series consists of notes and manuscripts written by both Raeburn and other science fiction fans. While unlabelled and undated, many of the notes can be identified as being used in various issues of Á Bas. The bulk of these notes concern drafted dialogue ideas for the zine’s “Derelicti Derrogations” Segments. The series also contains a large number of collected manuscripts, with the poetry of Rich Kirs, a regular contributor to Á Bas, being particularly prominent in this part of the series.
