Hi Externet, unfortunately no, we don't have any CD-ROMs of issues before 2003. There is a handful of articles that have been published on our website before 2003 but not all the content is there. Go to this link (https://www.nutsvolts.com/magazine/issues) and you can pull up the table of contents' for each issue. The articles that come up are the ones that have content.

Thank you, Mr. Lemieux.
Yes, I saw the contents of that link before and surprised that T&L publications does not have a treasured history vault with the printed complete collection of the early years :sad:
It would be interesting trying to find someone who has them, for your safekeeping and perhaps selling in electronic form, reusing some articles...
My collection from the nineties was donated to a library when I moved. Regretting not having them scanned then. I used to buy them at Halted in person.

I will give you the homework; try to find them, for the historic value of your business. :eek:

Ask at your local library if they can locate them on microfilm. Its a long shot but that's the way it was done before the internet. Someone probably did but locating the films and the person who remembers they exist might be a trick.

Externet,

Are you still looking for the old issues of Nuts & Volts?

I have 1999 to 2003 on CD, in JPEG Format.
I was going to do my whole collection{1993-2004}.
But I was missing one or two issues, or the magazines had faded, or were so badly damaged from getting damp.
That I just quit scanning them in at the 1999 issues.
Also, it was a pain, stitching together the larger pages, and cleaning up texts and images before saving them to the CD.
It would take me about a year of scanning to finish just one year.
