If that badge is from memory, well I must say I really liked the design. It's so simple and it explains everything.

The real ones are a little different. I found this photo later: http://www.trhonline.com/nobrandcon/MVC-200F.JPG

Oh sure, you had to use THAT photo. Of course I don't look that different these days, I guess.

I got reports later from people who weren't aware I was senior con staff the first few years that there was rampant badge fraud in no small part due to the simplistic design. An issue we rectified later. But if I recall correctly, the decision was made that no affordable solution was more than nominally secure.

That's a fairly clever n' basic design indeed. One-day hole-punches, can't be undone to make them 'upgrade' to a weekend. :) Obviously anything you can photocopy you can get badge fakes from, but it sounds like it worked in a pinch.

The program guides on both sides of 8.5x11, we did until over a thousand attendees: https://www.anthrocon.org/node/6460/anthrocon-flashback-2000 Now we have these pocket schedules that are about 80 3x4 pages.
