…two great tastes that should ever stay apart
BACK ISSUES OF ALARUMS & EXCURSIONS FOR SALE!
Ok, here are the back issues I have for sale. In some instances (generally, issues 50-89) I have duplicate issues. Oddly, and to my surprise, my collection has a huge gaping space from issue 94 to issue 135, since I only have issue 106.
Also, some issues have 1-2 missing back pages/cover and a very few have no front cover.
So, I’m keeping all the issues since I started subscribing (158 on) and I’m selling all the earlier issues for $2.50 a pop, which is what Lee charges for back issues. You pay postage and, if you buy enough of them, I’ll give you some sort of a discount.
I also have some back issues of Lords of Chaos…the first 12, I think. Same price.
Oh, and I have 2 reprint copies of A&E #1.
And now, here’s the list. If you want to buy any of them, send me an email at doccross@aol.com
Issues: 1-4, 6,7,9,10,20-37,39,40,42,43,45-84,87-90,92,94,106,135-140,153-157
In a way, it pains me to sell these, but I can use the $$ and sometimes you just need to get rid of stuff you don’t use. Actually, I’m even considering selling some of the issues I’m keeping…but I need to think on it.
Now, it’s time to slow cook pork chops in wine and herbs, so My Sweet Angel has a tasty dinner awaiting her when she gets home from work.
I’m very interested in getting most of the ones from before issue 100 you have listed Doc (I don’t need 80, 81, 82, 88 or 89 which I bought from Lee before), but I’m a leery about the postage for ~80 old mimeographed issues of A&E.
Isn’t there something like bulk US mail, known as mail-bag rate, as an option (that’s how Lee sold me a bunch of back issues before)? If that’s the case, how much would postage be?
::B::
Bulk rate, yes. I’ll check up on the cost. If yer gonna buy that many, I’ll cut you a deal.
And what exactly is/was “Lords of Chaos”?
::B::
It was another APA. Not sure how long it ran. Many of A&E’s early contributors were in it, too.
I’ve never heard of it. Was it a UK APA or a US one? When was it published? What’s the page count? etc.
::B::
US Apa…issue #1 is for Spring 1977…combined issue #12/13 is from August 1981…editor/printer was Nicolai Shapero. I have issues 1-3, 5-10 and the above mentioned double issue. Overall, the look is similar to A&E, but with far fewer contributors.
I also have issue #164 of The Wild Hunt
Also, I inquired at the post office and the cheapest way to mail those back issues of A&E is bulk rate. If they weigh 40 pounds, postage is a hair raising $79.00!
I shall ask UPS and FedEx if they can do better.
