| Chain Saw Age 1980s Archive Copies
Now Available From Former Editor (updated 14-FEB-2024)
Over 200 exclusive technical/service articles, a hot-saw project series, shop tips, a regular Q/A column, breaking industry news, logging sports results, new product releases, personnel moves, and much more, formed the meaty content of Chain Saw Age magazine throughout the 1980s.
Ken Morrison, CSA’s editor & production manager from 1979-1990, still recalls the incredible effort and care that went into producing each of these editions. And, it explains why he kept and preserved all the printing overages from that era. Now, after 30-plus years in storage, he is making them available to industry personnel, equipment collectors, and others interested in their unique content.
The issues have been arranged in annual sets. Many are complete, 12-issue sets, while others are partial sets. Because 99% of these copies were never imprinted or mailed, nearly all of them are in mint condition. Print quality and paper are high-end. And, there is plenty of content. During this era, CSA averaged about 60 pages per issue.
Pricing is set at $4.50 per issue. Thus, a complete, 12-issue annual set costs just $54, plus economical, at-cost shipping via U.S. Postal Service priority flat-rate boxes. Those wishing to reduce the total cost can purchase partial sets, which offer an abbreviated look at a year’s content.
Sales are on a first-come, first-served basis and, of course, supplies are limited.
Those interested in purchasing these rare sets should contact Ken at morrisonmill@gmail.com or call/leave voicemail message at 360-293-6593.
