Title: National Geographic
Post by: 1930 on March 17, 2012, 08:37:15 AM
Does anyone know where early mags can be viewed on-line. Prior to 1920 and up. With e-bay prices at 10 a copy plus 5 shipping its gettin ridiculous.
I do know the year and month of issue if that helps. Thanks

Most of the issues are still in copyright, and NG has chosen not to make them available on the web.

Probably because they then would not be able to sell them on dvd ;P

However, the $50 dvd set is probably cheaper than buying single copies off ebay for $10/ea....

Wow, that is a money saver especially since I have three others ( at least ) to find that were not avail on e-bay at this time. Thanks Rusty and let me know if you need anything from these DVDs cause they will be ordered

  I have a very large collection of National Geographic magazines.   Some very old.  I believe they go back into the teens.   Let me know if you want anything scanned.

Yes very much if you can help. I need April 1917, I dont know the page # there is evidently a very good picture of a 1917 Dodge Brothers convertible sedan and I am hoping maybe some info concerning the car.

Also I will quote........The first Dodge four door sedan. It was in production from Feb. 1919 to July 1921. Serial numbers ranged from 317858 to 610043. Good pictures and data on this model can be seen in National Geographic magazine ads in the June 1919 and November 1920 issue...........I would appreciate any help on this. Thank-you
