Bigbob Posted March 5, 2022 Report Share Posted March 5, 2022 Used to be the only good magazine for hunters till Dave packed it in , i was always surprised somebody didnt take it over . Check ebay i think you will be nicely surprised exspecailly if you have low numbers . I think i remember reading in a magazine about a full collection for sale years ago offers in the region of £1500 as they thought there was only 9 complete collections .

About 2 years ago now if I recall, used to have it delivered on subscription, but as said earlier, David Harcombe, who edited the magazine, could find no one to take it on from him when he decided to `retire` from doing it, (in his eighties I believe).

What a shame. When I had running dogs, I remember sending off my cheque to P.O. Box Fieldfare somewhere in South Wales.

Yeah the same here, towards the end, the magazine was only appearing every 2 months as David tried to keep it going, very sad, some of the features in the magazine were brilliant reading weren't they, and sent in by the readers generally.
