Vintage magazine scans!

I'm sure this has had a thread already but this is so cool.
There's so many cool old magazine scans here I figured I'd share it. There's stuff on big and small builders to explaining the difference between tubing types and type of build eg. Tig, mig, brazing etc. I didn't scan any of this, I'm just sharing it.
Hope you enjoy it.

very cool! Thanks!

I do enjoy the Bicycle Guide articles... such a great magazine! The "Hot Tubes" articles were a fun, quick look at some lesser known frame builders.

One of the fellows at the Classic Rendezvous list (and maybe here?) was Robert Broderick. He also scanned a huge pile of magazine articles, catalogs, etc. and posted them to his own archive: velo-pages.com
It has a search function too, so it's easy to find info on a specific topic.
It looks like this was built or updated last in 2009, so I'm not sure if this is being maintained, or how long it will continue to exist.
Definitely check it out soon!

On this general topic, does the C&V group have an archive or "sticky" thread for these sorts of online resources?

(my scanned articles are all on flickr.com , so just go there and search on a topic or even "bicycle guide".)
