I have a memory that Alfred Bester died just after Conspiracy in September 1987. The Telegraph obituary appeared the following March.

Who else did they obit on the same day, though? I've sometimes noticed that the Times seems to save up obits so they can put (say) three musicians, or four architects (or whatever) all in together on the same day, regardless of how long ago (within a month, usually) they actually died.
