Is there any archived scans of Atari ST magazines on the net?

Recommended Posts

What it says really on the title. There are loads of great sites with Spectrum/Amstrad/C64/Amiga magazines but nothing, apart from the odd multiformat magazines, of ST specific stuff like ST User or ST Format etc.

 

Am I just not looking in the right place or are these magazines gone forever now? There were some great magazines I remember and it would be a shame if they are all lost to the world now given you hardly see more than a few issues up on ebay to physically purchase.

8bit covered too, but you can download the cover discs as well

 

 

Thanks but not really interested in disk magazines or re-typed stuff but the actual pages of real magazines sold in shops scanned page by page for each.

 

eg like this ST Amiga Format pages

 

I have approximately 60 ATARI ST magazines of varying makes which will be scanned and made available on www.retromags.com over the coming months.

I scanned specific parts of Atari (related) magazines and they are in pdf format on my site (www.atarian.nl). Have a look :-)

 

My problem with scanning complete magazines is the size you end up with... several MB's per magazine if you scan it as pdf which to me is the format of preference because the are searchable (opposed to jpg's).
