Need Specific Magazine Dates to Complete Collection
My late father had a collection of National Geographic that he prized and had a special place in his home for. Upon his death, they were boxed up and give to me. During one of our turbulent storms here in Texas, one of the boxes was completely destroyed and I would like to replace the magazines that were ruined. I am looking for the following dates:
1958 July - December
1959 Jan - April
1960 March - October
1975 May
1977 March - August
1987 September
1998 July
2000 February, April-July, September-December.
I don't want anyone to break up an entire collection, but if you have a partial collection and have any of the above dates, please contact me. If you are in Texas, I can arrange for pick up to save on shipping.

That would be great! Are you offering them for free? How would you like to arrange for payment?

Yes, I am offering them for free as long as you will pay me for the postage. You can e-mail me at sojourner86@yahoo.com and send me your address and then once I take them to the post office to mail them I will let you know how much the postage was and where to send me a check to cover it. Does that sound good?

I haven't heard back from you. Do you still want these? If not, then I will give them to the local art center. Please respond as soon as possible. Thank you!

Sorry, I have been out of pocket all day. Yes, I do still want them. I will e-mail you at the email address you sent me. Thanks!

These do not have the maps included.
Thank-you,

I see several people have responded & it looks like my mother has some that you haven't received yet:
1977 Mar-Aug
1987 Sep
Would you like them?
My Mother is "downsizing" & is glad to find a happy home for them. :)
So if you haven't already obtained these issues, I would be happy to package them off to you.
