Thompson Club Newsletter Files - TATA Legend Volumes 1 to 24

[dalbert]

This post will serve as the place to download pdf files of TATA and TCA newsletters. I have completed links to the first 24 TATA Legend newsletters, and plan to add a list of features within each newsletter as I can. This project will probably take a while to complete. I've decided to post the newsletters in blocks of 24 or so, in case a thread corruption issue should occur...Then I will have less content loss, and be able to recover it more quickly.

Very nice. Now I can catch up on some of the ones I've missed. Great job.

[ron_brock]

David,

 

Thanks for taking on this project. It will be a wealth of information and will certainly get some foot traffic. It was great to read the first few years and see what we looked like more than 10 years ago.

[Ron Mills]

I add my thanks, David. That was likely time consuming and we appreciate it.

[mnshooter]

Really nice. Thank You David.

[jrlumpp]

Great job, so many of us thank you for all of your hard work.

Just received Volume 70 in the mail, thankyou Tracie and all the contributors. I always look forward to reading "The Thompson Legend", when it drops through my mailbox.
