    Great stuff OP and thanks again for all that hard work - you might have noticed that I'm having a ball going through them !
    I went through the "hit database" as UNC last week. The number was startling considering I haven't advertised the site yet, except on a few forums. B)

    I saw some bound harback copies of these at a car boot sale last week had a quick look, would of enquired further but they are quite large books and I am struggling for room:( plus knowing the seller they were more than likely not on the cheap side.

    They were $21.95 a copy here, IIRC.

    I've got the War Illustrated, almost covering the whole war, probably fourty or more issues. The only thing is they are from the first world war.

    OP Great stuff, thanks once again.

    I got a few 404 errors when looking through some of the issues. Don't know if it's just me getting a random problem...

    Do you remember which ones? It could be a "666 error". ("Loose nut behind the keyboard.") (My keyboard, not yours.)

    OP
    I see Hugh has posted some already

    To those I'll add these for which I also get the same 404 message

    1941 Nov 10

    1942 Feb 10

    1944 Mar 31


    For 1942 Nov 27 which Hugh has mentioned, I actually get this - "Safari can't open the page"

    and finally, I noticed that
    1940 Mar 08 is the issue for the following week - Mar 15 [and following on, Mar 15 is correct where it is]

    I hope you won't think me ungrateful, I think this is an excellent resource and appreciate the hours that must have gone into getting it up online.

    All my best

    Okay, all the missing files should be uploaded now. Again, thanks for that. Too much to do on this end, I do miss things. More eyes, more good results.

    I don't know what the problem with 1942-11-07. I'll upload it again. And I'll fix the 1940-03-08, probably me tripping over the naming.

    I do appreciate the checks, btw, a project this size has built-in problems.

    1942-11-07 reuploaded.
