Here I was hoping I could help you. I have always saved my older magazines and a couple of years ago I got rid of a huge pile of them. Went and looked and I guess I got rid of the newer Crafts magazines. Cuz, all I had was in the early to mid 80's. Hope some one can help you. Have you tried your library? Our's saves them, but after a while they offer them for sale.
