An idea
Right - here's an idea.
We get a list of every issue of the old crash comics and post this in sticky a thread.
We find a free web hosting service (or a server with data to spare).
Those with crash comics put up a post stating the issues that they will scan to pdf. Maybe only a couple at a time - this saves doubling up. When complete they are uploaded to the webhosting service for all to peruse.
Then the first post on the sticky thread is amended to reflect those that are scanned. In time we should get the whole set.
Mods, how bout this for a plan?
