    Hard to believe that no one here knows where to get these apart from the auction where it cost arm and leg.

    Have you tried contacting a local library? Talk to a librarian, part of their job is to help you find information such as this. These are old articles but there may be a library out there with those issues, and you might be able to get copies of them through interlibrary loan.

    Perhaps easy if you are US based. Here in UK it is different story all together.

    How aout trying the British Library? Give them a call -- if they don't have something, then you probably won't find it anywhere.

    I'm not sure if this is the correct Antiques Magazine reference or not, bit I located this information from the Library of Congress card catalog website:

    You may be able to order copies of the pages you want from the LoC, though I don't know how much copies of the film/fiche may cost.

    Just a thought.
