LA Con II

Anybody on the forum who may have info on the 1984 Worldcon masquerade ? I discovered somebody did Metropolis themed costumes and I'm interested in finding out what it was like. Philip Mercier was involved apparently. Thanks for the help .

What would you like to know?

I was just wondering what it looked like. Was it just a regular costume or a full blown suit ? Any pics ?

Somehow I had a feeling I would find somebody who knew somebody etc ...

You gotta love the internet .

This is probably not what you're looking for but Richie from RICHIESARMOR did a fantastic False Maria mask. It is truly an awesome piece. You may want to contact him for more info.
