The Sunburst Award Society’s “Copper Cylinder Award” ,an annual members’ choice award, takes its name from the novel A Strange Manuscript Found in a Copper Cylinder, by James De Mille (1833-1880), which is considered to be the first Canadian science fiction novel.
Please note that, for the time being, the members of the Sunburst Award Society have suspended honouring distinguished works with the Copper Cylinder Award. Inquiries can be sent to secretary@sunburstaward.org
