Index to Picture Postcard Monthly/ Annual/ Collect Modern Postcards

1. GENERAL INDEX

This index to our publications should prove extremely valuable to all our readers in locating specific articles.
It covers all issues of Picture Postcard Monthly (originally called Reflections of a Bygone Age) to October 2001 and all the Picture Postcard Annual editions 1980-2001 (except 1988, when one was not published).

The index also covers the 50 issues of a separate Collect Modern Postcards magazine.
It does not include this current publication, which has its own contents list. The index will be updated yearly.
We have not included articles of a very general nature, and those in light-hearted vein. Nor have we listed our regular features which appear monthly, unless some specific item within these warrants a mention.

With PPM, reference is made to the issue date of the magazine, rather than the number. These, however, correspond as follows:

Reflections of a Bygone Age: Aug/Sept 1978 (issue 1), bi-monthly through to Dec 79/Jan 80 (9).

Picture Postcard Monthly: Feb 80 (issue 10) and monthly thereafter. Thus Nov 80 is issue 19, Nov 84 issue 67, Nov 88 issue 115, Nov 91 issue 151, Nov 94 issue 187, Oct 96 issue 210, Oct 00 issue 258.

Articles from the Annual are indicated thus: ‘1985 A’, while the index to CMP goes by issue number.
