Mundo Spectrum magazine - date query

Another magazine, another date query :)

I know they were published in 1987, but does anyone know exactly which month?

I tried to read the first issue to get a date but nothing was found, so I fear that by using the magazine itself will not be posible, maybe some spanish fella knows by heart? :)

Thanks for trying, anyway.

I did the same, Ivan, and I found nothing. I've never heard of that magazine, I'm afraid it was not very popular, so it's difficult to find the release dates...

Thanks for taking the time to look, and get back to me.

Well, the issue with the picture of the Earth as taken from the moon says "Year 2 Issue 4 February" and from the 720 picture I'd say it was 1988. I was living in Spain at the time and I don't remember the magazine unfortunately, only Microhobby.

Hmm, that could be a good hint, true!
By the way, plecostomus, are you spanish? British? A tropical fish lover, huh? :)

I'm quite happy to go with that hint. Nice one!

It looks as though the scans are broken up over 2 years worth.
3 has (I think) Ano 1 No 3, while 4 and 5 have Ano II.
4 and 5 helpfully have the months printed (hadn't noticed that - oops).
3 has a hand-written Mai 87 as part of the front cover (as in, it's IN the front cover, not someone has written it ON it).

If so, there's possibly quite a few missing issues?

Very interesting.... Well, I think so - you can please yourself :)
