National Geographic's Collectors Corner

Collaborative site for collectors, dealers, & anyone interested in our history.

I've got a July, 1919 issue, volume XXXVI number one, with a publishing error.  After page 57, pages 1-16 are repeated, running upside-down & backwards from page 16-1.  Then the issue runs normally from page 73-88 where it abruptly ends next to the Prince Albert Tobacco ad inside the back cover.  Has anyone ever heard of this error/mistake?

Haven't seen this one before - thanks for putting it on the forum. There was someone who knew a lot about publishing errors and other deviations from the norm, but he passed away a couple of years ago. Perhaps Scott Shier might know if someone is tabulating this kind of data. You'll find him as a member of this forum. Thanks again! Mel

Thanks Mel, I'll look up Scott when I get a chance, but right now it's off to a Christmas party.  Cheers, Dan
