MVWC newsletter
« on: March 13, 2014, 10:26:21 PM »
Just got my first ever Missouri Valley Wrench Club newsletter. Wow, what a wealth of information! Now I'm wondering why it took me so long to sign up. Thanks Stan and everyone else who is involved in putting this publication together.


P.S. - are back issue copies of the newsletter available?

The back issue price schedule is included inside the 2014 membership directory -- on pg. 4.   Also there is a member taking bids on an extensive run of back issues.

Ah, wonderful! Somehow I had missed seeing that list of back issues. And there looks to be a lot of them too. This ought to keep me entertained for awhile. I'll get an order in the mail on Monday. Thanks!

Plyerman,   if you are planning on keeping your coppies handy, put them in a binder with plastic sleeves, now !  do not wait until you get 20-30 years worth and start sorting them out like I am doing now.

p.s.  welcome to the Missouri Valley Wrench Club.

I've put mine in "bound" volumes with hard covers.  The technique to create the bindings is very simple. The 1st volume is 1982- march 1992, the 2nd volume is 1992 through 1999, 3rd volume is 2000 through 2003, 4th volume is 2004 through 2006, 5th volume is 2007 through 2009, 6th volume is 2010 through 2012.  The set of six volumes takes up less than six inches of shelf space.   

The same pages in sheet protectors in 3-ring binders eat up a lot more space  (I also have all the originals from which the copies are made -- those originals in sheet protectors in 3-ring binders fill several milk crates. )

Thanks for the advice, I will try the bound volume method.
