Paperback. Condition: Very Good+. 1st Edition; 1st Printing. This is an oversized paperback book with cardstock covers and a side stapled spine. The book is in Very Good+ condition and was issued without a dust jacket. The text pages are clean and bright. "Indexing at the M. I. T. Science Fiction Society began in the early 1960s, originally aimed at making the Society's own growing collection more accessible to its members. The original listing of books was compiled on Hollerith cards by Marilyn Joyce Wisowaty (later Niven). Since Marilyn had been given the nickname of "Fuzzy Pink Roommate" by her roommate Fran Dyro, (the nickname soon became "Fuzzy Pink" to all other people) the work became known as the Pinkdex. It is believed that this inspired Strauss in his naming of his first index-The Blackdex and the Bluedex. Erwin Sheehan Strauss, an M. I. T. Under-graduate, glorying in the nickname of "Filthy Pierre"-decided the make use of the data processing equipment to produce a "quick and dirty" index to the major magazines still publishing at the time (we had all the copies of Gamma, so he included that also)."
