Jan issue

Below - 2006 Sep - FWJ 01 to 2016 Jul - FT 50
PDFs and e-magazines on e-magazine site, https://issuu.com/traditions-uk,
where you will find a list of issues - FWJ 1 to FT 50 - all available as e-magazines to read online.
FWJ - Folklife West Journal - was published separately and irregularly (due to work demands)
then as regularly as pages within Folklife magazine.
Issuu is an e-magazine format, which we relied on for years, till it suddenly wouldn't work when I tried to add to it
I can't even re-upload PDFs that I used before (tells me to "use a PDF" when it is a PDF !)
Still works for you reading FT 56 and earlier; you can't download from that site, only from this page as PDFs.
So, if you go to our e-magazine site, https://issuu.com/traditions-uk, you will find a list of issues up to January 2018, FT 56 - all available as e-magazines to read online. We can't update that site.
Note on print vs online availability of articles and copyright pictures.
Articles by Dave Jones and Charles Menteith are not available on Issuu.
Articles by Charles Menteith are being added to downloadable PDFs on this site. This is an ongoing process and not complete due to the problems of older magazines using Apple fonts that have been discontinued & converting to modern fonts before saving as PDFs. For individual articles, contact us, we may have a Pdf of article that we can send even if not on PDF below.
Articles by Dave Jones. Taken from his book The Roots of Welsh Border Morris, £5 by post from Annie Jones, see adverts in FT or contact us for Annie's details.
Additionally sometimes we have copyright restrictions eg in one case high-resolution permission granted for print but low-resolution for web . . .
