Waddell Posted 9 July , 2008 Share Posted 9 July , 2008 An unbound but complete set sold for $204.50 Australian this morning on a well known auction sight. Not sure what that is in pounds but would be close to one hundred. And postage. Is it just me or are these becoming valuable? I've been collecting them piecemeal. Looks like I'll be eating that elephant in small bits a little longer! Regards, Scott. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irishmen1916 Posted 9 July , 2008 Share Posted 9 July , 2008 Saw some issues in a shop in Ieper last April, €8 each. Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waddell Posted 9 July , 2008 Share Posted 9 July , 2008 That works out at 408 pounds for a set. $204.50 Australian doesn't look that bad a price when you look at it that way. I bought my last single issue for $4.00 Australian. Regards, Scott. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irishmen1916 Posted 9 July , 2008 Share Posted 9 July , 2008 That would be 408 Euro Scot, about £330. But at €8 each, that was two much, just got the one issue, great photos and first had accounts. Wish I could have got more. Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waddell Posted 9 July , 2008 Share Posted 9 July , 2008 Yes you're right Peter. Forgot about the dreaded Euro. They are a good read though. A bit boy's ownish. Scott. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaureenE Posted 29 November , 2019 Share Posted 29 November , 2019 The Great War…I Was There! Undying Memories of 1914-1918, the weekly magazines are available as a database on the pay website findmypast, titled "Britain, The Great War, I Was There" https://search.findmypast.co.uk/search-world-Records/britain-the-great-war-i-was-there located in Armed Forces & Conflict/First World War. However, not at all user friendly if you just want to browse, (rather than specifically searching for something). To browse the pages, do not use a Search term but click on the Search icon, when a series of 1186 pdf images, (each of two pages), will be displayed in image order. From any image you can navigate to the next image, or the previous image. (This function is located near the top of the findmypast webpage, not near the actual image). Part 1 consists of 29 images, perhaps larger than the average, if in fact all issues are included. Cheers Maureen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
