And here are individual page images, which are available in a range of qualities and file sizes. Most people want the third column, in which the files have been substantially cleaned up to remove the grain of the paper, bleed through from adjacent pages, etc., but are still plenty high resolution:

Progress Report 2

Here's the second progress report in PDF and in plain text. And here are the page images:

Presumably, there was a Progress Report 1 (although we wouldn't put it past our former selves to have numbered things strangely). We don't have a copy in the archives, so if you have one, please let us know. Judging by the date of Progress Report 2 (a month before the convention), it was probably the last one.

Flyer

Flyer thumbnail Here's a flyer advertising Minicon 3. And here's the raw scan of the same. The scan is of the original and there seems to have been something pasted on (where it says "bound!") that has been lost. Here's the text of the flyer.
