Help me find an animal fact card

26 Upvotes

Hi. I used to have a bunch of National Geographic Kids magazines from the early 2000s. Some issues had animal fact cards, like the ones seen above (first and second pictures). My favorite one was of an elk/wapiti. I know this is a long shot, but does anyone have a picture of it (front and back) or know what I’m talking about? I’ve only been able to find the elk cards from the Little Kids magazine (third picture), but I’m specifically looking for the one from the Kids version. So the card looks like the ones in the first two pictures but is of the animal in the third picture.

Does anyone wants these?

My father saved these and I don’t want to store them any more. They are a bit musty smelling but otherwise dry and in great condition. Many opened only once when received in the original magazine.

I have scoured the internet trying to find the original image of this torn NGS flag - I know it's a slim chance but, does anyone recognize it or have any clue where I could find it? I have already tried reverse image searching and using keywords. Thanks so much!

WTB them all!

1 Upvotes

I have assembled a complete set from 1959-2014 and some from the 20s-40s, but am trying to fill out 1888-1958. Anyone have a source? I'd really prefer to buy a decade at a time to save me driving and indexing effort. Trying to do this by Christmas as a gift for my wife.

I'm okay with reprints.

Crosswords published in National Geographic Magazine - Help

1 Upvotes

Hi all,

I posted this in the crosswords subreddit but I didn't have any luck and I'm running out of ideas of where to post it!

As per my post elsewhere:

I am hoping someone can help me track down some crosswords.

There was a period where National Geographic magazine used to publish a crossword each month. In the UK.

I remember it being in the range of 2005 - 2015 but I am fairly sure it was close to 2010.

I've been trying to track these down but my searches really aren't turning up anything - does anyone at least remember these or have an idea how I might be able to track them down. I remember them being fantastic.

They weren't children's crosswords. They were particularly difficult and had multiple clues which were simply a ? symbol and the answers to those were the theme of the crossword.

Thank you!

April 1998 scans

1 Upvotes

Would anybody who owns the April 1998 issue of National Geographic "The Vanishing Prairie Dog be able to take a photo/scan of pages 86 and 87 and send it to me? I found a loose page 87 while cleaning my dad garage; it's a beautiful photo of a couple swimming during golden hour, but I can only see the right half of it, and I'd love to see the rest. Thanks.

Hi. I'd love help tracking down an image from a late 70s/ early 80s issue of National Geographic. It was a four page spread depicting a dance scene in a French club. Thank you.

Nat Geos 1936-1984?

1 Upvotes

Hey NatGeo folks! So my dad was a lifelong collector and I've ended up with his set from 1936-1984.

They're all in pretty good shape since he took great care of them, but now unsure what to do with them as I just don’t have much room.

I know they're not worth much money-wise, but I can't bring myself to just toss them in recycling just yet.

Looking for recommendations for the oldest ones in particular. I've thought about schools or libraries, but heard most don't want them anymore. Would love any ideas for giving them a good home!

Audibly gasped when I got to the 3rd floor of this shop. They have multiples of many issues organized by date, dating all the way back to 1928. Most in really great condition for the number of years.

when to expect a 12th ed. atlas?

3 Upvotes

I wonder if anyone here as insight into when Nat Geo may publish another world atlas. I ask because the 11th ed. came out 5 years ago, and the intervals between prior publications have been 5, then 4, then 6, then 5, then 7 years. (1992, 1999, 2004, 2010, 2014, 2019)

I know that the acquisition by the Walt Disney company has changed some things, but I am not sure if this is one of them. There has not been any statements about the world atlas being discontinued yet, as far as I know.

Thanks for any details.

Help finding original photo?

I am told my great-great grandmother painted this based off of a National Geographic photo back in the 1930’s. It features an Armenian woman, but with her neighbor’s face instead of the original model’s. I’d like to know what the original photo looked like, if possible. Thanks!

Help me understand how magazine subscription works

1 Upvotes

It might be a silly question but I've never subscribed to a magazine before. So if I take the yearly print subscription now in Nov'24, will I receive all the issues of the year 2024 before the year ends or will I receive issues starting from Nov'24 till Nov'25?

I came into a bunch of National Geographics, mostly late 60s through 70s, and some assorted earlier than photo cover ones. I'm in NYC and would happy unload all of them to someone who wants.

Hiya, im wondering if anybody has a spare of last months issue, Indigenous futures. Ive attatched an image. I was trying to find a copy online that I could buy without the sub and couldnt find it anywhere! There was nothing in any of the paper shops or WHSmiths either. This is kind of my last effort of trying to get it, ill pay for it and the shipping if anybody has a spare copy they could send me? Im in the UK too

I was particularly interested in this one and wanted to read it then show somebody. Im sure you get my gyst. I know I could read it online but to me that isnt the same and I heavily dislike paying for digital things.

Hello everyone, I am wondering if anyone who has access to Nat Geo magazines has ever come across an issue on Jordan. Specifically, I am hopefully looking to find something on Wadi Rum. This is for a thesis that I'm planning at the moment! If you have, please just leave a comment under this with the issue date. Thanks.

Is it possible to get a magazine subscription without paying for the digital membership?

5 Upvotes

I don’t want the digital membership. I just want physical copies of the nat geo magazine sent to my house. I know you can do that with the history magazine but I was hoping to get the regular magazines. I don’t want to pay $19 for the digital membership on top of the $30 for the magazines 😭

Looking for an issue from 1970-1982. Missouri fly fishing

1 Upvotes

I remember having an issue around 1981 for a school report and cutting out pictures of Missouri, there was one where a group was fly fishing on a river in Missouri. I’m guessing the issue was late 70s, but no later than May 1982. I don’t even know where to start in looking for it. Any tips? Thanks.
