Anyone know of any sites (similar to say, bookfinder or abebooks) where one can purchase old magazines? ---

There is [this site](http://www.oldnewspapers.com/), which has links. Dear lord, I hope there’s not an old magazine site similar to bookfinder, or I am in _serious_ trouble . . . ---

I will have to check that site out. I am looking for an old college football program. Specifically, one from the November 14, 1964 game between Michigan and Iowa. I am a die-hard Wolverine fan, and 11/14/64 just happens to be the day I came into this world, probably singing “Hail to the Victors!” A ticket stub (or full unused ticket) would also be nice. If anyone has any ideas, I would appreciate it! The game was played at Iowa, so perhaps an Iowa Doper knows of a used book/collectibles store that I might be able to mail order it from. Thanks! ---

booklover…define old magazines better. I could ship you boxes full for free. ---

And don’t forget ebay. I found a TV Guide there from the week I was born. ---

“I found a TV Guide there from the week I was born.” —I will have to check that out. Perhaps they have an issue of “Edison’s Kinetoscope Weekly” from when _I_ was born. ---

**Stoid** , I’m specifically in pursuit of the back issues of Modern Gymnast/International Gymnast that are not offered through IG. Obviously, this is a little bit off the beaten path—not your standard “I want back issues of Life/National Geographic” request. ---
