Golden Sydney Award statuette

The Golden Sydney Award was an attempt previous to the Ursa Major Awards to create a furry fandom equivalent to science fiction fandom's Hugo Award. It was awarded to a person in "mainstream" media or publishing who had helped to create a more "furry friendly" atmosphere for anthropomorphic material and fandom.

The statuette for the award was a sculpture of ConFurence's mascot character Sydney Fisher, sculpted by Ruben Avila.

The first Golden Sydney was awarded in 1996 to Jymn Magon at ConFurence 7 in Irvine, California.[1]
