Lot of 31 Games and Games Deluxe Magazines
Back in my day, we didn't have the internet to keep us busy!
When I was a kid, we got Games magazine, and we LIKED IT!
I drink too much to remember what Games was all about, but Google helped me turn up an overzealous online magazine retailer who describes the magazine thusly:
|
"I'm glad I found GAMES, because it's a gem. They review many games, including the board & computer variety. There are also contests, some of which are hidden, & winners may receive cash ($1000 grand prize in the issue I'm looking at) or other excellent prizes like GAMES t-shirts. Each issue has a fake advertisement to spot, & GAMES focuses on many other forms of ingenuity as well. But the main content that I am finding is puzzles, more puzzles, & even more puzzles! Crosswords galore, logic problems, cryptograms, picture puzzles, word searches, & many other types of puzzles that employ words, numbers, grids, symbols, photographs, and many mundane things from everyday life that have been converted into puzzles."

Included in this big heavy lot of (apparently bimonthly) magazines are:
11 issues from 1986
6 issues from 1987
6 issues from 1988
6 issues from 1989
and the "Dec/Jan 1990"
and "Apr/June 1992" issues.
("Bimonthly" being used here in the "once every two months" sense, not the "twice a month" sense. What a useless word...)
Because I received these magazines when I was a fat kid with no friends, there may be some crossword puzzles that are already done, and whatnot. Then again, as an obsessive compulsive fat kid, there's probably not a drop of ink on them.
At any rate, there's still six years worth of fun stuff to share with your favorite shut-in or fifth grade class.
