Old Full Cry Magazines
I have two old Full Cry magazines one dated November 1940 and the other March 1944. Got these about 10 years ago when our club was cleaning out files and no one wanted them so I took them.
I wonder how I can find out if they are originals or just newer copies? Anyone know?
They are very interesting to read and look at.

should know
They should say if there reprint + you should be able to smell them. I have a buddy who has a collection from the 60's to the late 90's. you can smell the diff.

it
the pages may be tainted a lil' (yellowing) all of my buddies pages are yellow tint color, and there in binders. open it and smell it then smell one of your new mags.............lotsa diff. If it does'nt say reprint Im sure its orig. Buddies are in mint condition, granted yours are 20 yrs. older. contact full cry and talk to them about it.

I don't know about that but, I sure would like to have the Oct. 1967 issue. If anyone has one they would let go please post here. That is the one with my best friends picture on the cover.
Full Cry has reprinted and has sold some and given some with subscripions. I have some reprints and some originals. I will check your dates and see if I can confirm anything. I believe my collction starts in the late 30's.

I collect coon hunting mags, and found a real treasure the other day. I was coming back from fishing, and seen a rummage sale with a bunch of fishing poles out front, so I stopped. I didnt buy a pole, but bought 85 Full Cry, and American cooner mags from the 60's and 70's for 5 bucks. They are all in mint condition.
Luke you got a real deal. If you have any duplicates or issues you want to get rid of I collect Full Cry and have some old cooners and Blood lines and would sure like to do a little trading.
