[splante]

Best $20.00 I ever spent 55 back issues of soda spectrum from issue number one in the year I believe 2000 to present. All on one cd. Just reviewed the first issue and the last issue great info, great articles and pictures. Now I need to find the time to go through the other 53. Lot of history,nostilga,and classified ads.Bottles,and all the go withs pictured and recent prices paid for certain items.
would reccommend this to anyone who is a serious soda collector,you can go to the website to order if interested,and or subscribe to the 4 a year issues publication

Thanks for the information!

I ordered one back issue of the "Cola Conquest" to see what it's like. About how many pages make up the magazine?

early additions around 15 to 20, but most are 40 or more, on their site if you click on back issues then the indivudale issues each will give a summary of articles inside. you click on the cd if you want to order the first 55 issues.
each seem to have the history of some soda companys...

Hi - thanks for the kind words about the Soda Spectrum BACK ISSUES CD - much appreciated!!

The back issues cd contains Issues #1-53 on it (in pdf format)... literally hundreds of articles about old sodas, brands from the past, historical photos, info for and about collectors. Lots of discussion about auctions, eBay, bottle shows/sales, shipping costs associated with buying online, etc.

If you collect sodas of ANY kind, this is the publication for you.

For anyone interested, the back issues cd is currently on sale for $19.95 including postage until December 31st. After that it goes back to the regular price of $24.95 (still a great deal, in my humble opinion). You can get it here: http://www.sodaspectrum.com/subscribe

Thanks!
