Canadian Coinbox archival project

Working with the fine folks at Gaming Alexandria, I am looking to compile and digitize as many issues of Canadian Coinbiox as I can.

The goal is that they will eventually all be scanned and shared on the Internet Archive.  Can you assist in this project?  If you have any copies I would love to hear from you at thetastates@gmail.com or reply to this post.  I'll put a list of what I've acquired so far at the bottom.

If you can scan your copies?  Amazing, yes.  If you have copies to donate?  PLEASE!  If you want to sell issues?  Contact me anyways.  

Do you have issues from 1946-1972?  Definitely contact me ASAP.

Huge shout out to Retro Dave who scanned his 1984-03 issue and sent me the images.  I prepped and compiled them in to a PDF and you can now go read and download it over at IA.

Canadian Coin Box 1984-03 (March 1984)

My earlier scans are all now up on IA too:

Shout out to Arie who provided me the first batch of magazines, and then to Jean-Marc who donated 3 huge boxes worth.  This list covers a few different magazines, and all are going off to be scanned.

 
 

the current magazine list has moved here
