While I'm dreaming about acquiring new books, anyone out there have any leads on back issues of the defunct English version of "Militaria Magazine"?

I can't say that I have ever seen a British version of this publication. Currently, I am trying to get it distributed here as they have them only sent by subscription to CCland.

Is this the French magazine we're discussing ? If so, then I'm afraid that back copies of the English edition are almost impossible to find. I've seen a few bound issues at militaria fairs this year but at silly prices... [img]graemlins/no.gif[/img]

Sorry folks, guess I didn't explain myself too well. Yes, this is the French publication "Militaria Magazine". A few years back there was an attempt to print it here in the U.S. in English. Lasted I think 26 issues. By the time I found a relatively local bookstore that carried it (up near Chicago-3 hours from my house), they had THE last issue printed.

I've been able to locate I think 4 other English versions, plus a few French versions, but that's it.
