Is it still crazy to scan 1000 magazines?

[Aquaman]

Woot.......... did a web search and I just found an affordable large format flatbed scanner

Under $200

Now I have to figure a way of getting it up here (some shops don't sell outside the USA )

Cheers,
Aquaman

ive been debating on scanning the 200 or so easy rider mags i have. most came from my dads garage when he moved, but they are in pretty much brand new condition, with posters still in them. not sure it i wanna scan full mags, but i think a comic scan from all would be a cool site, as well as all the posters. the ads crack me up as much as the comics, especially the late 70s and early 80s ones.

Too bad Canucks and Luongo are out. Here in S. Florida I was rooting for him.

How is the scanning going?

No, he only need 4 more back in Feb. Now he has 18 that have yet to be scanned. He's also either found some more mags or is still purchasing them as the total has increased.

What I want to know is whether the universe will implode once he's finally finished with this monumental task.

 

[Capt Caveman]

Amazing!!!

 

[caivoma]

wow lol, that is a long project, almost done though. :thumbsup:

 

[SmoochyTX]

I don't believe you'll ever really finish.
