Commodore Magazines on Scribd

[Crookedmouth]

Anyone interested in old Commodore 64/128/Amiga magazines should check this out. I think it is closed to full set of Commodore Power/Play and Commodore Magazine. The early Power/Plays have some nice VIC-20 content too. They are in PDF format and the scans are very well done.

This is a link to a search page just scroll through pages. If it doesn't work just do your own search. I think I had to register to download.

Very cool indeed

For a second I thought you said Colecovision magazines.....as I have been trying to snag one of those for a while now.

That would be awesome. Were those put out by Coleco? I take it they are very rare.

I have downloaded complete sets of just about every Commodore magazine released in PDF format ... CU Amiga, Commodore Power-Play, Commodore Disc User, Commodore Format .... the list goes on ...

The problem is I don't know who scanned them. I think Mort scanned the Disc User mags and a lot of other mags as well ... but without the okay from the scanner I cannot make them available here. If you can confirm what mags have been scanned by Mort and if he is okay hosting them here it's simply a case of me uploading them along with converting them to CBR. Some of his early scans do need some cropping/color work done though ...

So there's a job for someone .... get hold of Mort and work out what he has scanned and whether we can use them. I have all his Mega mags as well for instance if you want to see them here. I have too much on my plate at present scanning or uploading new stuff so need someone else to go bat for us on this ...

I thought about contacting the user who uploaded these to Scribd, his screenname is stevend, if he didn't scan them then this would most likely be fruitless. Who is Mort?

I do admit that the color and alignment are not the best but the actual scans are quality just a bit raw.

Almost guaranteed he didn't scan them.

Mort is the guy who makes mags available on ZZap64 Zuperstore I think ... correct me if I am wrong Phillyman. That remark about contacting Mort was primarily directed towards Phillyman as Mort has been uploading cover scans here and said we can use his mag scans but I need a list of the stuff he has made available via PDF's so I know what is his and what isn't etc.
