OK: here is a general response to all the mail I've gotten.

First of all, I put the original post up about the same time as sending
off a request to Activision to be able to scan them in. I'm still
awaiting a reply, although as there is approximately $0 possible income
deriving from not letting me do this, I imagine they'd let me.

Second of all, I have gotten a number of requests for both formats
(full-page and individual parts). I am still interested in input... I
will run a few tests, though, and if it's not too much space, I'll
consider uploading both forms.

Third, I have another question: some of the later issues of SL had blue
printing as well. In the by-parts format I will definitely scan these
as B&W, but for those of you interested in full-page format, do you care
whether I scan them as color or B&W? Again, a space issue.

I've gotten a number of responses to this... all I personally ask is
that if Activision gives consent to have these scanned in, that these
issues I'm missing be also uploaded by some other kind soul. :)
