Powder Magazine, 1972-1980Issues from winter 1972-73 through spring 1980 were borrowed from and returned to Jake Moe, co-founder of Powder magazine, in Seattle. Jake has four bound volumes covering the first eight years of publication, given to him when he left the magazine. If the Notes column says "reference," then the contents may be useful for future reference, but I haven't made detailed notes on them for now. The ID column below has links to review notes. If you have any Powder issues with material relevant to this project that I could borrow, please click here.
