Numbering guides - Whoopee and Whizzer and Chips

Weird indeed. Maybe it was dated that way to prolong shelf life.

George, do you (or anyone) happen to have the previous issue to the 1/95 (February) issue?

If so, was it dated 12/94 (December) or 12/94 (January) or something else?

Thank you,

Al

10/94 according to a quick Google Search was dated November, which does make sense - I scrolled on down and 7/94 was dated August. Issue/Year must be on-sale and month must be off-sale.

I can't remember off-hand if issues of the three Best of titles had issue/year dates before 1994, but certainly they did in 1994.

I think that clears it up. There were 123 issues in total. The last one being dated 1/95 (February).

I have just downloaded this file again, so it is definitely not corrupted.

Bruce has uploaded them with the Excel 2007 format (as I was writing this post ) and I have re-uploaded them with the olde Excel 1997-2003 format: http://www.mediafire.com/view/ekp9622xe ... CM_WP).xls

I have also reloaded the 3 spreadsheets that are contained within the original document as 3 separate .txt files:

Thanks al i can read these now ,I cant see bruces' when i downloaded them though as it says i have missing or corrupted files to contact computer manufacturer & it is only just over a year old
Is there any way we can have these on a seperate subject along with other guides to titles such as buster tiger rotr etc as these are invaluable & many thanks for all the hard work you guys out into them as i have been writing the dates in red boxes in notepads from my own collection which takes forever .
Istill cant believe the oversight re whoopee 500 cover as i though i was going mad as i have most of them & spent many a day counting & researching this,someone must not have taken strike weeks into account,thus thinking it was the 500th issue published,i wonder if anyone at the time who had every issue tore their hair out thinking they had missed issues

Bri. I saved mine as a .ZIP file. to read the files you must unZip the files first. To do that, use Windows' built in ZIP extraction tool (assuming that you use Windows). If you're not sure, I'll re-upload these in plain Excel format.

Here are the files in unzipped format: Whizzer and Chips, and Whoopee
