Snider-man Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 87 frickin' issues. I'm am incredibly pleased to see this newsletter still kickin' and strong. Over many years, I sent away for all of the back issues. At one time I think I had 1 - 55 or so. Wish I could find 'em again. Or are back issues still available?

Snider-man Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 Here's an idea: Why not compile all of the issues from #1 to current and sell them on a CD or in a bound volume? I'm sure that it'd be an easy project to complete and there'd be a ton of buyers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timdu Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 The CD project is something I have considered... but I still prefer to read the issues physically on paper / hard copy. Call me old fashioned. I only have "control" over the issues that I published (#1-50). I am currently offering the first 50 issues for $37.50 (and $5.00 shipping) - That's just 75 cents per issue! Also: Issue 88 has just been published by Al Backiel #88 (Jul/Aug 2007) features: Interview with Jeff Adkins - Classic Fanzine Editor Game Promotions - article Spotlight on Homebrews - Raster Fahndung (2600) & Adventure II (5200) How To Beat Home Video Games - VHS review Wolfenstein Easter egg Letters from Readers News & Notes Classified Ads Trivia Contest / Results For more info, please check out http://2600connection.atari.org Tim Duarte Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
