Mike Hinge 80th Anniversary: Andrew Porter

Andrew Porter first met Mike Hinge in the early 1960s, when he moved to NYC from Los Angeles, where he'd been a student at the Art Center School [now College] of Design. Andrew Porter was the editor and publisher of ALGOL, The Magazine About Science Fiction.

For the 80th Anniversary blog posts, Andrew has contributed a photograph of Mike, some covers from Algol and Starship and a rare prelim for the cover of Mediascene of Richard Dreyfuss in the film "Close Encounters of the Third Kind".

ALGOL: THE MAGAZINE ABOUT SCIENCE FICTION, Vol. 12 No. 2, Issue No. 24, Summer 1975
Andrew recalls that this cover was designed so that there were over-runs done without the logo which when folded made great Christmas cards.
