Minnegazette Back Issues

Quantities are limited. All sales are subject to availability.

Inventory accurate as of December 10, 2006.

$1 per issue, $10 for 12 issues. *Twin City Lines, #10-001, is priced at $5.00.

1970-March/April 1981 are 4-10 pages on plain paper with no articles and a few historical photos, but lots of museum news.
Starting with May/June 1981, the Minnegazette upgraded to a magazine format on coated paper. Still mostly museum news,
but historic photos increased and articles began to appear.

In 1990, Aaron Isaacs became the editor, and the magazine grew to a standard 32 pages with greatly increased photo and history content.
