I subscribe to Vintage Motorsports.
It comes every 2 months (thanks Doug), and it's pretty expensive...

I feel it's the best vintage publication in this country... the standard

It seems that the demographic focus of most vintage magazines is the baby-boom generation, or even a little older.... at least for now...
I fall within that age, and most of my friends who subscribe do as well...

I would hope you have some good advisors from that demographic to help you with your research and enterprise…

Hope this helps, and best of luck on you nobel effort... the more quality vintage publications, the better.....

Cheers

Yeah I realized that after I posted it, and now I can't figure out how to edit the poll. But I left the questions at the bottom. If you answer those that would be really helpful too.

What is the highest price you would pay for car magazine at a newsstand? Don't know...not much more than other comparable quality mags

How much would you pay for a subscription? Not more than comparable mags

Do you like getting a new issue every month? Yes

Would you rather get less than 12 issues a year or more? More is usually better, although my wife thinks I get too many car mags already
