Commodore 64 and 128 periodicals

From C64 Wiki

Commodore 64 and 128 periodicals are the recurring publications, issued in numbered or dated runs, whose own covers, mastheads or editorials address owners of the Commodore 64 and the Commodore 128, alone or with other Commodore machines.[1][2] This article treats them as publication runs rather than program collections, recording for each representative title its class, the first and last issues checked, changes of title, numbering, frequency and publisher, its country or language, and its physical form.[3][4] Type-in listings, scans, cover images, disk or tape files and game reviews are outside its scope.

Corpus rule

[edit | edit source]

This boundary is the article's own, drawn from how the cited issues describe themselves rather than from a bibliographic standard; every title named here is sorted by it.

A title enters the corpus when at least one surviving issue shows a title together with an issue number, a volume and number, or a printed date, and when that issue's cover, masthead or editorial addresses Commodore 64 or 128 users. Commodore-only titles that also cover the VIC-20, the Plus/4 or the Amiga are admitted.[5][6] Titles serving several makes of computer are left out. On this ground Compute!, whose first issue (Fall 1979) is catalogued with PET, Apple and Atari subjects, is excluded and appears here only as the parent of a Commodore title.[7] Books, one-off specials, cover-mounted gifts such as cards, and software offered without an issue identity are also excluded.

Admitted titles are assigned to one of four classes, tested in this order:

  1. Newsletter: a run issued by a user group or club and obtained through membership or a club subscription, whatever name the run gives itself.[8]
  2. Disk magazine: a run in which the periodical issue is itself a disk; companion disk runs keyed to a printed parent belong here as well.[3]
  3. Type-in periodical: a commercial print run whose issues carry standing instructions for keying in its own listings or a named section of programs to be typed.[1]
  4. Print magazine: any other commercial print run. A disk or cassette supplied with every copy is recorded as a cover attachment and does not move the run into the disk class.[4]

Where an issue was not checked for type-in instructions, the title stays in the print class.

United States runs

[edit | edit source]

Compute!'s Gazette and its disk

[edit | edit source]

Compute!'s Gazette began with a July 1983 issue that called itself the premiere issue of a magazine for VIC-20 and Commodore 64 owners from the publishers of Compute!. The masthead describes twelve issues a year from COMPUTE! Publications of Greensboro, North Carolina, and the contents page lists a guide to typing in the magazine's programs ahead of the listings section.[1] The December 1984 cover numbers it both issue 18 and volume 2, number 12, consistent with a July 1983 start. By then the masthead stated monthly publication and a $24 yearly subscription.[9] The same issue advertises COMPUTE!'s Gazette Disk, a monthly subscription disk holding every program printed in the matching magazine issue.[9] The disk run had begun in May 1984: that issue's advertisement names it as the first with a disk, and its editorial reports the master going to duplication.[20]

The archive's collection describes the standalone magazine as running from 1983 to 1990, then becoming a section of its parent. Its last file is the June 1990 issue, printed as volume 8, number 6, whose masthead names ABC Consumer Magazines, part of Capital Cities/ABC; the editorial in that issue gives no notice of closure.[20] The companion collection of Gazette sections begins with the October 1990 Compute, numbered volume 12, number 7, issue 122, whose cover is marked as a special Gazette edition. The 64/128 column reports a change of owner: General Media had acquired COMPUTE Publications through a buyout after Capital Cities/ABC chose to part with its consumer magazine division. Under the new arrangement one Compute was issued in several versions, each for a different computer, and the 64 and 128 version kept the Gazette columns, type-in programs and Gazette Disk. No issue for July to September 1990 was examined, so any gap between the two forms is unestablished.[10] The Gazette edition is treated here as continuing the run because its section addresses 64 and 128 owners; Compute itself stays excluded. The December 1993 section announced that it was the last Gazette on paper and that from January the title would exist only on a double-sided disk.[10] The index's transcription of the February 1995 disk opens with a column declaring it the final issue, and the collection description counts 14 disk issues in 1994 and 1995.[21]

RUN and ReRUN

[edit | edit source]

RUN first appeared in January 1984 as a monthly from Wayne Green Inc. of Peterborough, New Hampshire. It styled itself the Commodore 64 and VIC-20 magazine, disclaimed any connection with Commodore, and named a national distributor beside its subscription rates. It also explained its listings' bracket codes for special keys.[5] By the May/June 1992 issue the cover named IDG Communications as publisher and called the title a guide for Commodore 64 and 128 users. The contents page numbered that issue volume 9, number 3, so the run had become bimonthly. Its programs were also sold on ReRUN disks with unpublished bonus programs, by subscription of six bimonthly disks.[2] In June 1984 the editorial column had announced ReRUN as tape and disk reissues of selected programs, two installments that year, the first from the January to June issues.[11] The latest item in the archive's RUN collection is dated November/December 1992 and numbered volume 9, number 6; it still offers a matching ReRUN disk, but no closing notice was found, so that issue is an approximate endpoint for both runs.[22]

Commodore Microcomputers, Commodore Magazine and LOADSTAR

[edit | edit source]

The title's archive collection begins with issue 14, October 1981, then called Commodore Magazine: volume 2, number 4 of a bimonthly from the Computer Systems Division of Commodore Business Machines. Its editor's note lists The PET User Club Newsletter and Commodore INTERFACE as earlier names. The masthead still read Commodore: The Microcomputer Magazine in July/August 1984 and gave Commodore Microcomputers from September/October 1984.[23] The November/December 1986 issue is volume 7, number 6, issue 44. Its masthead gives bimonthly publication by Commodore Magazine Inc. of West Chester, Pennsylvania, ISSN 0739-8018, and adds that the same company published Commodore Power/Play.[23] In January 1987 the same company issued Commodore Magazine as a monthly. It continued the volume count as volume 8, number 1 but printed a different ISSN, 0744-8724, and its letters and news columns answered items from recent issues of both predecessors.[3] The archive record's uploader, not the publisher, states that the two magazines merged into Commodore Magazine in January 1987.[23] The archive's label for the 1987 issue, "Issue 01", is collector numbering.[3] The last item in that collection is the October 1989 issue, volume 10, number 10, still described as monthly; with no closing notice, October 1989 is an approximate endpoint.[24]

Both magazines told readers to consult "How to Enter Programs" before typing, and noted that the BASIC programs were sold on disk by LOADSTAR of Shreveport, Louisiana.[23][3] In January 1987 LOADSTAR advertised itself as a magazine on disk issued monthly; besides the two magazines' programs, unprotected, its disks carried music, graphics and other extras not on paper, and its order form sells #29 as the disk companion to the October/November 1986 Power/Play.[3] The earliest LOADSTAR advertisement found in the collection, in March/April 1985, describes monthly two-sided disks that alternate between the two magazines' programs.[23]

United Kingdom runs

[edit | edit source]

Commodore User introduced itself in June 1983 as a new magazine with a long guide to that month's Commodore show at Hammersmith.[13] The archive files this issue as number 00, and the next item it numbers 01 is dated October 1983. Whether issues appeared in between is not established.[25] One archive compilation describes a run of issues 00 to 77, June 1983 to February 1990.[26] Yet the archive's item 155, dated August 1996, has a contents page headed CU Amiga Magazine, so 1990 marks the compilation's extent, not the end of publication.[27] Issues from 1990 place the renaming in the middle of that year. The May 1990 item still prints a coupon asking newsagents to reserve Commodore User.[12] The July 1990 item ends with a panel giving 26 July as the on-sale date of the next CU Amiga.[28] A December 1990 reader survey is addressed to CU Amiga at Priory Court, London.[29] The first issue under the new name is not identified here.

Commodore Disk User is a separate run from Commodore User. The item that the archive numbers 29 is printed as volume 4, number 5, March 1991 and carries ISSN 0953-0614. Its masthead gives monthly publication by Alphavite Publications on the third Friday, with an agency for subscriptions and a wholesaler for trade distribution. Its contents list items "on the disk" separately from items "in the magazine". A notice on faulty disks sends subscribers and newsagent buyers to separate return addresses.[4] An uploader's PDF collection includes the first issue, printed as volume 1, number 1, copyright 1987, supplying every program on disk rather than in print; its masthead describes a bimonthly from Argus Specialist Publications of London. The collection's catalogue date, August 1987, is unconfirmed.[30] The highest-numbered scan, item 36, is printed as volume 4, number 12, October 1991, and still names Alphavite as monthly publisher.[31] An Alphavite letter to creditors in the same collection, dated 17 December 1991, reports administrative receivers appointed on 12 December but names no magazine, so October 1991 is an approximate endpoint.[30] Your Commodore, also with Alphavite, put a free game tape on its January 1991 cover. Its masthead gives a monthly on the fourth Friday, with subscription rates, and a returns notice covers faulty cassettes.[14] Its archive item 00, from Argus Specialist Publications, has footers dated July 1984 that describe it as free with Personal Computing Today.[32] The numbered items stop at 83, catalogued as September 1991; its text could not be checked, so this endpoint is approximate.[33]

Continental European runs

[edit | edit source]

The April 1984 64'er, catalogued with Markt & Technik Verlag as publisher, labels itself issue 4/April 1984. Its editorial says that the magazine would deal only with the VC 20 and Commodore 64 family, and its contents include a section of programs to type in.[15] The archive collection begins with this issue. The collection's metadata credits Markt & Technik through the February 1994 issue and Magna Media Verlag from April 1994.[34][35] The November 1996 masthead offers single copies and a twelve-issue subscription, and an article there mentions programs from an earlier issue disk.[36] According to the uploader's note on the December 1996 item, the title consisted of only a sheet and a disk from that issue onward. The January 1997 masthead still states monthly publication.[16][37] The uploader's note on the January 1999 item says that after that issue the folded sheet was also dropped, leaving an unlabelled disk supplied with the magazine PCgo. Neither note was checked against the issues.[38]

The French Commodore Magazine, published by Artilec of Asnières, printed 15,000 copies of its second issue, dated September 1984. In replies to readers the editors explained that, for financial reasons, they preferred sales by subscription or in computer shops to newsstand distribution.[17] Issue 1, dated June 1984, had the same print run and named 17 September for issue 2.[39] Issue 9, March–April 1986, reports 30,000 copies with N.M.P.P. as distributor and says subscribers received it before kiosks did. No later issue is archived and the uploader only asks whether it was the last, so the endpoint is approximate.[40] The Hungarian Commodore Világ numbered its Christmas 1991 issue 20/21, volume III, 1991/8–9. It covered the 64 alongside the Amiga and Plus/4. Published by COM-WARE Kft. of Budapest under ISSN 0866-0808, it announced nine issues for 1992. It urged readers to subscribe by postal cheque rather than look for it at news vendors.[6] Its first number, catalogued as August 1989, was produced by the editorial team of Spectrum Világ.[41] Issue 51, December 1994, announced the new title Computer Világ as a technical change that kept the numbering.[42] Issue 52, January 1995, carries the new name and a new ISSN, 1218-7930.[43] The uploader marks issue 63, December 1995, as the last, and its editorial tells readers to ask newsagents for PC Ultra in January.[44]

The Spanish Club Commodore is credited in its archive record to Microelectrónica y Control and dated May 1983. It calls itself a revista and mentions a larger subscribers' edition. Its form offered one year, eleven issues, for 1,980 pesetas paid on delivery, together with club activities such as BASIC courses and program exchanges. The linked membership and subscription make it a newsletter under the rule.[18] Issue 0, catalogued as September 1982 and described there as a bulletin for VIC and CBM users, offered a year's subscription for 1,100 pesetas.[45] The archived run stops at issue 15, dated January 1984 on its cover, without any closing notice, so that endpoint is approximate.[46]

User-group runs

[edit | edit source]

The Toronto PET Users' Group's November 1985 issue calls itself TPUG Magazine, a title for all Commodore users published ten times a year with ISSN 0825-0367. Its masthead reports 16,000 subscription and 10,000 newsstand copies and explains that a subscription came with membership. The membership link makes it a newsletter under the rule despite its newsstand sales.[8] The archive's complete-run record dates the magazine 1984 to 1986. Issue 1, February 1984, replaced the contract-produced bulletin The TORPET. The last file, issue 25 for August 1986, still promises ten issues a year and has no closing notice, so that endpoint is approximate.[47] Cursor, the newsletter of the Commodore Computer Users Group (QLD) Inc., was numbered volume 2, number 6 for January 1986. It carried an Australia Post publication registration, and its contents ranged from meeting notices to Commodore 128 features, including CP/M.[19] Volume 1, number 1 appeared in July 1984.[48] The latest archive item, volume 14, number 1 for September to November 1997, reports that the committee had made Cursor bimonthly because of cost and a lack of material; no closing issue was found.[49]

Material and distribution forms

[edit | edit source]

Five material patterns are documented at issue level. Plain print sold by subscription and on newsstands: Compute!'s Gazette, RUN and TPUG Magazine.[9][5][8] Print with a separately sold companion disk: the Gazette Disk, ReRUN and LOADSTAR for the Commodore Magazine Inc. titles.[9][2][3] A disk or cassette with every copy: Commodore Disk User and Your Commodore.[4][14] A standalone disk periodical: LOADSTAR.[3] A late reduction to sheet and disk: 64'er, per catalogue notes.[16] Compute!'s Gazette left paper in January 1994 for its subscription disk alone.[10] Frequency also changed: RUN went from monthly to bimonthly, the Commodore Magazine Inc. line the other way.[5][2][23][3] Readers may compare these runs with the manual literature and with listings written in Commodore BASIC.

Evidence limits

[edit | edit source]

Only two endpoints are documented in the issues: the last Gazette disk announces its end, and the final Computer Világ points readers to its successor.[21][44] Every other endpoint is the last item the Internet Archive holds, not a recorded closure, and is approximate. Where archive identifiers, compilation titles or uploader descriptions conflict with the printed issue, the article follows the issue and attributes the catalogue view.[26][27][3][8] No issue before October 1981 of the run later called Commodore Microcomputers, and no 64'er before April 1984, was examined.[23][15] LOADSTAR's first and last disks were not found; its evidence here runs only from March/April 1985 to January 1987.[23][3] For ReRUN, neither the move from the 1984 installments to disks matching single issues nor the end of the disks is dated.[11][2] Start dates for Club Commodore, Commodore Disk User and Commodore Világ are catalogue dates, not printed ones, and the Your Commodore endpoint could not be checked against the scan.[45][30][41][33]
