I have decided that I will not scan EGM Issue 32 March 1992 at the moment in hopes that someone else has a copy in better condition. The amount of work required to make the scan look decent would be huge. Almost all the pages are dog-eared at both corners, some pages have huge folds in them, and a couple are cut and/or torn out.

Here is what the cover looked before I fixed it:

And here it is after over an hour of work:

Only the back and inside covers would require that much work again, but the other pages would also require more than normal help. So if anyone else has this issue, feel free to scan it, or contact me if you want me to scan it for you.

If not worth the hassle then what are you asking for?

I split the editing 50/50.

I have a copy of this magazine. It was the first EGM I bought. Aside from a dent in the spine, it is complete and relatively unmarred.

Is it an issue you are willing to have destroyed in order to get it scanned though?

That is the real question, isn't it? Do I sacrifice a magazine that has at least some sentimental value for me? I could try scanning it myself I guess, but I haven't scanned a stapleless magazine yet, cover notwithstanding. Hmm...

I'd say if E-Day has this scanned already he should continue as is. You did all this work on the cover and it'd be a shame to go to waste. Are the covers the only thing wrong with this? Throw me a bone. I am capable of editing some of this magazine for you.

It is my understanding that the magazine is in very poor condition, with missing and seriously damaged pages, which is why E-Day was asking if anyone had this mag in better condition.
