I did not know there was a catalogue along with each mag I know there is some adds in the end of issue 6 showing accessories and prices I too would be very interested in seeing these too. Please if anyone has them and if possible please would you post them for us to see. or anything old legacy is good Bill From: legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com [mailto:legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of mwfos...@earthlink.net Sent: Friday, 10 January 2014 5:52 AM To: legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Introduction - Request for English Roger Roger (English Roger), Thanks for your input - interesting. Since you say you have ALL of Andy's Legacy "Mag-a-logs" (magazine/catalog), would you be so kind as to post the "catalog" sides of all the issues. (If I remember correctly, the mag-a-logs were published with the magazine "reading" from one cover and the catalog printed upside-down from the opposite cover.) The catalog sections will be valuable to Group members in seeing the various models and accessories that Legacy produced - along with their prices, back in the day. Thank you in advance for considering this request.
