Ice Hockey News Review Magazine

[Baz]

I have a very substantial pile of these, from the old printed sheet issues from February 1982 up to volume 19 in April 2002. It is not a complete set, but there are not many missing (save for Volume 8 which has disappeared somewhere). I'm not going to count them, or vouch for their quality - the odd one has got beer soaked for definite), but there must be in excess of 250 issues. There are some Wembley Specials and summer issues included. Catch up on 20 years of UK hockey history.

Make me a stupid offer and they're yours. I don't want a fortune for them, but I'm loathed to chuck them in the bin. Will deliver to the arena on game night, or meet me somewhere (you'll need a car, or half a dozen hefty mates).

Baz,....When are you getting rid of any PUCK/Ice Hockey News mags? Volumes 6 and 9??? ;D
Still after a 'Star' or two FAce-Off by D.Hawkins and FAce-Off (01-04)by Stewart.The Edge and Up Fronts. Bet you have one or two?

So the bedrooms dropping into the lounge now then?

[Baz]

I have Puck Oct, Nov, Dec 1982 and Feb/Mar 1983.

I have Up Front, both issues 1 and 2.

Any Ice Hockey News went a long time back I think, probably to you.

Let me know if you want any of these.

The upstairs and downstairs became one a long while back. I'm now extending upwards.

I have those Puck issues by Phil Drackett, ta. But the next I have is Oct 84 which must be the next season.
Issue December/Jan.92/93 of the following title Ice-Hockey World by the same editor Phil Drackett must be the last one totally I guess as mine stops there.

Those Up fronts are the ones i have too.Was there only two? I was assuming 3 and 4 went out also. Contacted author who promised to venture into his garage but heard nothing since.

[Baz]

There were five issues of Puck, the last being the Feb/Mar 83 I believe.

Ice Hockey World started in October 84 and ran for forty-nine issues in Summer 93, again, I believe.

I think you got a bit mixed up in your last post. I'm pretty sure we've been through these, and my various stacks before, so I can be reasonably certain I've nothing left that you haven't already got.

I think there were just the two Up Fronts, judging by the fact I have thousands of each, but have never seen an issue 3 or 4.

In answer to your other question, I think I've done seventeen so far including last night's.

[spik]

I have 35 Worlds (and all Pucks), which suggests14 missing from your calculations of a total of 49.
Not that I am after them all but does DEC 92-JAN 93 Issue sound like the last one? Which was Volume 9 number 3.
The ones between are very oddly titled/dated.

Think your right now about the 'Up Fronts'

I have an APRIL-MAY 85, plus a VOL 3 No.7 (not Play-Offs), AND the Vol 7 No.4 your missing.
I need a Volume 6 (not 1,5,6) and Volume 9 (not 1,2,3) for my set.

Willing to swap maybe.
