This turned up in my search last night for some Steve Whitaker letters: My X-Men Fan Club membership card from 1981 (when I lived in Johnson City, NY, near Binghamton.)

ha...! - i was xfan no.285 so i have "cerebro seniority" - mind you, steve, frank, hass, gerard & mike teague all had much earlier numbers so they "win" really ( - xmen fan glub leader geoff lamprey was xfan no.51 - the earliest number )

Why did the numbers start at 51?
(I still have some of Geoff's old letters, too, by the way.)

- geoff glaimed it was so no one wld have the number one slot - but the cynics amongst us thort it was to bump the numbers up by 50 - make the xmen fan glub seem more popular than it was
( i used to get drawing lessons from geoff - praps the worst fan artist ever - i wish i'd kept his letters with them in )
