These contain lots of historically interesting adverts for components etc. which were the latest technology of the time, giving a different view to the sort of stuff in the more commonly found vintage hobbyist publications." - Link.

Anyone know about legal issues involved in scanning and posting old magazines? I have a lot of popular electronics issues from the 60's-70's. There's a lot of good stuff in them.
