4to5to6 Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 I am searching for the PDF copy of Concertina Magazine I/I (winter 1983) which later changed it's name to Concertina & Squeezebox. I understand someone here on Cnet put the entire collection on a CD years ago. I only need the first PDF file. It can be easily sent to me through www.sendspace.com please PM me. Much appreciated, John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken_Coles Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 It was the late George Salley, who owned the rights to the content of the back issues, who put together the CD. Since his demise I don't know who would own the rights to reproduce it - maybe someone else here does. Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4to5to6 Posted August 26, 2015 Author Share Posted August 26, 2015 (edited) Thanks Ken, It's sad to hear that George Salley has passed away. I'm sure it is ok if I was sent an issue. I'm reading The Wheatstone Concertina by Alan Atlas and he makes references to this volume of C&S, the one I don't have. The specific pdf file I am searching for is "C&S 01 no 01.pdf" if anyone can sendspace it to me. Let me know if you have this file and I'll message you with my email address and instructions.

4to5to6 Posted September 6, 2015 Author Share Posted September 6, 2015 I'm still searching for C&S 01 no 01.pdf if anyone can help. Thanks, John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Hersh Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 I have the paper version. Did you want a particular article or page? I'd be willing to scan a few pages and e-mail to you. I'm still searching for C&S 01 no 01.pdf if anyone can help. Thanks, John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wes williams Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 PM sent with link to No1, so no need to scan Daniel. I think George had just got his first scanner, and wanted to help pay for it. I got a copy, did anybody else? George originally released these using a PDF file for every page, which was a bit unwieldy, so I 'sowed' them into a PDF file per issue, and sent them back to George with an HTML index. He said he'd use them for any future requests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Hersh Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Thanks. Wes! it's good to know that you have these. What would you think of putting them up on your site, or on the ICA site? Do you think that would be consistent with George's wishes? PM sent with link to No1, so no need to scan Daniel. I think George had just got his first scanner, and wanted to help pay for it.

Jody Kruskal Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 I hope it is. That would be an interesting resource for us all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What would you think of putting them up on your site, or on the ICA site? Do you think that would be consistent with George's wishes? They are already available in the 'ICA Archive', which is accessible by many concertina researchers, as well as ICA Committee Members. But it isn't generally open to the public. I didn't know George well, and we only ever chatted about his scans. I have plenty of space on my site to put them up. But what do others think? Edit: Don't forget that Neil Wayne's Concertina Newsletter/Free Reed is available on the Concertina Museum site at http://www.concertinamuseum.com/FreeReed/CM-FRIndex.htm Edited September 13, 2015 by wes williams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken_Coles Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 I did correspond with Geo (George) about this, when he inquired if it was appropriate to advertise the scans here on the forum (I said it certainly was). Without going into details that don't belong here, the circumstances under which C&S ceased publication left Geo owed some money, so he told me there was no doubt he was entitled to the rights to the old back issues. I think that was one motive for sharing the scans on CD-ROM for (IIRC) 20 dollars U.S. - to recover a little bit of it. Given this, I think the proper thing to do would be to track down his family and get permission to openly share the archive. My hunch is this permission would be readily granted, and it would be the right way to do it. I know there are folks who knew Geo better than most of us and who could put us in touch with the right folks. Anyone out there? Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wes williams Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 Rod - It looks like you've got the version I sent back to George. I took the indexes from the contents pages as it would have taken too long to index fully, and some indication of what issues articles were in seemed better than none.

Leah Velleman Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 Does anyone know if anything ever came of this, or if back issues have been made available some other way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wes williams Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 I don't think any progress was made. However Daniel Hersh is now on the ICA committee and so has access to the PDF files in the ICA Archive and may wish to comment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far as I know, no one responded to Ken's question back in 2015. I don't know how to reach Geo's family, and even if he felt he was entitled to the rights, I don't know if that is legally accurate. So far as I know, Joel Cowan (who may also have a claim to the rights) is still alive, though he is not easy to find. All that having been said, if anyone wants a particular individual issue, send me a c.net private message. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
