Boy, brings back memories Bobbbbb. Probably nobody else on the Board knows what you are talking about. Great critic. Other SF greats... Bobby Stevens, Bill Leiser, Prescott Sullivan, Charlie McCabe, Curley Grieve, Paine Kinckerbocker...Read Caen everyday but he was a major SOB.

I would not have “gotten it” without the list you provide.  I do remember Stanton Delaplane.  As well as Sullivan, McCabe and of course, Caen. If by Bobby Stevens you are talking about the great giants beat writer, him as well.  Never heard him referred to as Bobby.  But then I didn’t know him as you did.  And, all us Bobs are Bobby to some….
