"Electronics Games" 1st Issue Scan

[maf]

I have been looking for scans for a few of the issues I am missing to no avail.

I have the Mar '82 and Jul '82 and all subsequent Issues but am missing Issue #1 and whatever issues are between Mar & Jul '82. (I don't know exactly when they went from bi-monthly to monthly).

 

Anyone willing to scan issue #1? I would be willing to provide scans for other issues in trade.

I'm afraid I don't have a scanner. I wouldn't mind sending you the first issue, so you could scan it and send it back. All I'd ask for in return for the loan is a color print-out of the 1982 issue with Tron on the cover, with the MCP going up the middle (red border...it's got reviews of both Adventure and Haunted House in it. I can't remember the month). If it's pricey to print out something like that, I could pay you the difference. I've been looking for that forever, because it's a bit sentimental (it was the first EG I ever bought, and got me initially interested in a lot of game-related things back then).

Just looked in the archives here - that one is July '82.

I'm afraid my ability to print is pretty limited. All I have is a cheap combo scanner printer all-in-one from Dell and have never actually used it for anything high quality. Definitely can't do double-side prints. Wiould an outfit like Kinko's even duplicate copyrighted material? Probably not. I would think I could scan it onto a DVD or something like that.

Cool; thanks. July '82. I need to write that down or something.

 

Well, don't sweat it, Maf; if you can't find a scan of the debut issue, PM me, and I'll lend it to you anyway. In the meantime, I'll do some Googling today and see if I can't come up with a scan for you, because I could've sworn I've seen it online.
