I’m trying this layout out but before making a separate blog for OP–Chenille Tartar will be the test run location for the time being. I’ve also opted out of making full copies of any issues available online but will catalog the contents of each issue in written text format. That should make certain subjects more searchable too!
This format is subject to change. Here are the first two pages (well, the front cover and page 1, the Table of Contents) of “A”. This will be a lengthy project but hopefully something that will be of use for anyone interested. Pages will probably be posted 2 or 3 at a time (for now, hopefully more once all of the scanning is done) and will not contain full texts but page contents (topics of articles, ads, etc.). This really just seems like the best way to proceed at this point. I suppose I could not scan the collection but then the pages would become further damaged. They’re already very brittle.
If anyone is interested in contacting me for more information please feel free to do so via the comments for now. There seem to be issues with the contact form box. Hopefully that will sort itself out.
I hope that you enjoy the images that will be provided with each post.
