WTB: Compute!'s Gazette's missing issues (mostly 1984)

Post by Mirage1972 »

I was looking to see if I had Jeff's wanted Compute! issues (I don't), and in the process, I inventoried my Gazette's. I have a complete set, except for the following, so if anyone has them, I'd be very interested in obtaining them:

ALL of 1984
November 1986


I'm still upset about how it came about that I need these issues. I bought the complete set of Gazette's a few years back, and the seller put them all in a box not much stronger than a paper bag. The USPS had me pick them up at the post office in a bin with the label thrown in. The box had broken up in transit and the postal employee was nice enough to put them in a bin for me, but some had already been lost in the system (I like to think that they may have been delivered to the original subscriber if the 1984 delivery labels were still attached! (the seller was not the original subscriber.)

It's pretty amazing that a complete unbroken year was lost, along with that one 1986 issue!

EDIT: Just realized that the later Gazette!'s were actually just COMPUTE!'s with a Gazette section. I probably have all (or enough) of those. Just need the above 13 issues. Hoping someone eventually has them. Thanks!
