Seeking help re old copies of Aeroplane/Flight

When researching in various libraries and museums over the years I have only encountered the above magazines bound WITHOUT the covers.

Can anyone please advise me of any location with public access that holds these mags for the period 1938/1939 that includes the covers.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I use the Flight archive to identify the editions I want and then search ebay. It takes a little time but it is possible to build a collection for a reasonable cost. I have managed to obtain just about all the ones I wanted from the late ’20s that way. There are quite a few ’38 and ’39 copies on offer now.

Cheers

Thanks for that Schneiderman – a very useful site – but I am looking for originals if possible,

If pdf format is OK for you then for Flight

http://www.flightglobal.com/pdfarchive/index.html

most editions include scans of the covers, albeit in greyscale
