Magazine Back issues :- Is there a online resource for old issues such as issue 1 upwards ?

I have spotted a online indexing project for articles , but it does not appear to show content of each magazine.

I have checked the back issues option online but it appears to only go back a few issues.

Other than buying used etc , is there anyway to get the very early issues ?

Hi Peter

If a digital or Print Plus Digital subscription to MEW is taken out that will give you access to the "digital archive" on the site which will allow you to view online every issue of MEW from No1.

The digital archive for ME only goes back to about 2002 and you would get access to that if your sub was taken out for ME rather than MEW.

In both cases you will only get access while your subscription is current , once expired you will no longer have access.

I do believe there are some good black Friday discounts available on digital subs so act soon if you want to make a saving.

Only viewable on line and you will need Flash to be able to view them which some machines may not have but there is usually an App that will allow them to be viewed.

Individual page scan be printed to paper of a PDF writer but there is no easy way to print a whole maganine to pdf

We will be moving to HTML5 in due course when the majority of windows users are able to view it (already have for Mac OS).

Android requires you to use a 3rd party flash player.

Jason reported in an earlier thread that the "Puffin" browser supports Flash and makes the whole archive viewable on an Android machine and I can confirm that this is so on my tablets smiley.
