Vintage Magazine Articles and Advertisements

I recently acquired an old magazine with an article of the 77 KZ650. As I was browsing through it I was enjoying the ads from back in the day. I am trying to figure out how to PDF the article for the guys over at KZ650.info and here also. I have an all in one printer that is quite old and I put it away when the printer went out. I got to thinking I could still use the scanner even if the printer is toast. Any one else that can scan some old mags is welcome to add to the content. I think this could be interesting.Here are a few scans that caught my eye.




Here is the front of the mag




Disregard the text I was after the Denco ad


Check out the TZ Yamaha


My personal favorite, a full color full page Lester mag ad on the back of the mag

Good stuff, thanks.

As for creating .pdf files I use PrimoPdf - it's a small program that installs like a virtual printer and lets you create .pdf's from any application that has a print feature. Easy to use, safe and it's free - here's a link:

I have a Vintage Ad CD that I sell on Ebay. I have sold around a hundred or so at $10 each. Has around 1200 ads from all makes. Good number of KZ and aftermarket performance parts. I haven't tried to sell any in a few months but if anyone here wants one let me know. $8 shipped to the US sound fair? I can attach some pics when I get home if anyone wants to see.
