Hi. This isn't quite the forum for this, but I appreciate your efforts to reach me. Please e-mail me at jscott@archive.org and we'll see what we can do. And yes, this is a totally legitimate public domain work and Sony is overreaching here.

I am looking for earlier Computer Shopper magazines in the Archives. Anywhere I can look?

If you consider 1989-1991 as being the earlier dates I have a few paper copies. These are about 11" x 17" and weight a pound or so. They are not in too bad shape.
What year are you looking for?

Any dates you have. I am constructing a graph from 1979-2016 for the size CS grew to so I need any data points available. What I want is just the number of pages in each issue.
Each issue has the page numbers listed on the bottom corner plus the 5 or so pages to the last page. This way your numbers will match the page numbers Archive.org has for the 2000-2002 CS issues they have listed. Thanks.
Tim

The size of these issues is 10" X 13".

Is the data below the type of information you require?

Dec 1990 812 pages
March 1991 788
April 1990 742
October 1989 728

There are more but I will see if this is what you want.

Perhaps this could be done off line. Send me an email if you would like. And if possible I could use a letter to show my wife attesting to the fact that keeping these for 30 years was actually not a waste of space.

I really like looking at this old program. I noticed you only archived side 1
Will you be adding side 2??

I hope so.

Thank you for starting this program on the archive. I still have the floppy disks, but of course I dont have the software to even read them anymore:-(
