Eaglecon 80 - part 9

It occurs to me that I've not covered anything to do with the very first Eagle comic convention - Eaglecon 80. A recent sale by ace ebay seller phil-comics (here) of one of the awards from Eaglecon 80 (see below) for £155 has inspired me to start looking images.

I looked at some initial images here
We had images about what was on display here
images of the original art that was on display here
the banquet dinner here
from the panels here
Frank Hampson here
Interviews being held here
Keith Watson here

All these images are from the late, great Eagle & Dan Dare historian Adrian Perkins.

And now we have more images of Keith Watson...
