The previous Worldcon (the 11th) was the first one in which Hugo Awards were awarded. The 12th Worldcon did not continue the tradition, but since the next one (the 13th), Hugo Awards have been a permanent fixture of the conventions.
However, in 2004 at the 62nd World Science Fiction Convention held in Boston, a set of Retro Hugo Awards were presented to honor work that would have been Hugo-eligible had the awards been awarded in 1954:
Best Novel: Fahrenheit 451, by Ray Bradbury
Best Novella: "A Case of Conscience," by James Blish
Best Novelette: "Earthman, Come Home," by James Blish
Best Short Story: "The Nine Billion Names of God," by Arthur C. Clarke
Best Related Book: Conquest of the Moon, by Wernher von Braun, Fred L. Whipple & Willy Ley
Best Professional Editor: John W. Campbell, Jr.
Best Professional Artist: Chesley Bonestell
Best Dramatic Presentation: The War of the Worlds
