pulps
« on: February 27, 2007, 01:31:28 PM »

a month back, i started a yahoo groups to try and bring together any scanned pulp magazines that are out there. so far we've gathered about 20 - cover to cover.

however, there's some discussion about which on-line storage system to use and i wondered if there was any synergy between my group and this one. would it make sense to post pulps here, given that many golden age fans read both kinds of books?

you're all welcome at groups.yahoo.com/group/pulpscans/ is there a way to work together here to increase preservation efforts?

Although it would make sense to have the pulps as well for the time being we will just be concentrating on comics, once we have all them sorted out and know we will have the available space Serj might consider widening our collection to include pulps

Dave, Thanks for the invitation to join your pulp group on Yahoo. I have downloaded some
of your pulp scans and find then of better quality than the average of comic books scans.
I wonder if pdf  would not be a better format for these pulp scans sice there are few pictures on them.

I have also found out that some of the scan files do not exist anymore, particularly those stored on
yousenit.com  ("The file associated with this link has expired").
I find  file-exchange servers very useful for short-time sharing, but obviously not for purposes of storage due to the short mean-life of the files.
