Weathervane Magazines

Topic to list all of the known issues of Weathervane magazines.

I am sure the list below is incomplete and a lot of the years have an issue for every month or twice/month

Info from below:
Most are the 1st and 15th of the month but in 1969 they dropped the date and went monthly. 1970 picked up again with the dates of month.

Please add to this thread or send me a PM if you know of any other issues

EverettB,
There are some of these Volkswagen Weathervane articles available on eBay as I have seen them as early as the late 1950's.
There is one December 1959 but most that I have seen and have in my collection are usually the 1st and 15th of the year but for some reason in 1969 they dropped the date and went monthly.
1970 picked up again with the date of month.
I'm not sure about the later years as 1973 is my cut-off year of collecting.

Thanks, I will add that as a summary of what the usual dates are.

The list above is a list I made of my issues a few years ago but I'm not sure it's 100% up to date on what I currently own.

EveretteB,
Today I was going through some of my VW Literature and came across some 1980's VW Weathervane issues and the November 1984 issue was the 25th anniversary issue and states inside that November 1959 was the first VW Weathervane issue.
