Honorary Membership awarded for a remarkable illustration gifted to Episode 8½ of The Between. Although Bream may have something to say about one of his household secrets being so spectacularly blown!
Seymour Porter and all our be-tailed comrades would like to say a heartfelt THANK YOU to each of the Honorary Members of the Society for being such wonderful company as we journey through the world of Hope.
