I now am the (very) happy owner of a big collection of ICCA Journal issues in mint condition:



So I was wondering if any generous donator(s) who has no use anymore for his collection could help me complete mine? Smile

I have all issues from vol. 1 No. 1 (may 1978) to vol. 16 No. 4 (dec. 1993), with just one issue missing : Vol. 13 No. 4.

Has someone this issue, or any issue starting from Vol. 17. and would be willing to help me make Prédateur less laughable? Wink

Nice! My own collection starts from Vol 6 No 3 to Vol 17 No 4. I have an incomplete collection from Vol 18-20 though. So yes I do have what you are missing, but I'm not willing to part with them. Can't you get them from ICCA anymore?

Prédateur is not laughable. I have been joking with you, but not at your or Prédateur's expense.

I will look Monday. I have 'em all myself, and have quite a few duplicates so it is possible I have one I can give you... You can also check with the ICGA. They historically have a few back issues. vol 13 is pretty old, however...

Julien,

I have the issue you need (vol 13 december 1990) in new condition.
I also have volume 17 to 24 issue 1.
Because it's been a long time since I took a look inside one of these journals I'm willing to send them to you.

Is there somebody else interested in vol. 6 no 3 to vol. 13 no 3? or vol. 14 no 1 to vol. 17 no 1?

Hi Julien,

you can still order back-issues:

Otherwise go to the next ICGA event, where Jaap has a Journal and book store Wink

Thanks a lot Joost, that's very kind! Very Happy They'll be in a good house with a caring amateur! I'll PM you.

@kongsian
Ach, a competitor! ^^

@Bob
Thanks Bob. Smile But as Joost is kindly offering to complete all the missing issue...

@Adam:
I know Adam, Pred is not the worst engine out there and I know you are just teasing Wink Still, there's a lot of work to do to improve it.

@Gerd
Thanks for this alternative proposal. Smile But considering the strange $/€ change rate I'll only resort to it if I only have a few missing issues. Still, I'm bookmarking the link, in case of...

A little something is on your way, too... Although nothing even remotely as valuable...
