Here's an update about the Finnish magazines. My plan was to do only some background research and maybe forward some magazines to people with scanners, but there have been some unexpected developments, so the short version of the story is that I will be scanning magazines myself. I have received some magazines for free, for instance, someone was moving and was about to throw magazines away, unless someone wanted them, and I took them. I have found some magazines in auctions relatively cheap, and the best part is that many times the sellers have given some free bonus magazines, in one case the free bonus magazines were actually rarer than the magazines I was actually paying for! There have been strange happenings, like when I was bidding for a pile of magazines, but the price got a bit too high for me. A while later I unexpectedly happened to cross paths with the guy who actually won the pile, and he only wanted a couple of magazines from what he had bought, and he sold me most of them cheaper than the auction price was. And as I wrote earlier, I was not going to do any scanning, as I didn't have a good enough scanner. I happened to find a professional A3 size scanner that was on sale much cheaper than the actual price is. I thought it was a pricing error, but I decided to order it anyway. Soon after I made the purchase, the price was raised, not once, but twice, and you can't currently buy the scanner at all, which is a strong indication that it was a pricing error of some kind. Whatever the case there may be, I actually did get my scanner for a cheap price, and it's a very good scanner! So now, unexpectedly, I have a few piles of magazines and a scanner, it's almost like some kind of destiny was putting all these pieces together. I am probably able to upload something soon, but first someone would need to create those database entries for new magazines and a new country. So, who's the person to send information and details about these magazines to?
