Just out of curiosity, does anyone on TFF have the first issue of BassMaster magazine. There was also a reprint done with a glossy cover a few years later, but the original has a mat finish with a heavy paper front page. My understanding is, there were only 2500 originally printed. Anyone want to take a guess at its value?

I have a friend that has every issue from 1968 through 2000.
It stopped in 2000 because they were his Daddy's and his Dad passed away that year and Bobby didn't renew.

That is too cool! I have a bud who has I think 3 copies of the first issue and a few others. Got 'em on eBay. I flipped through issue one and was honestly surprised at how good the reporting was from Bob Cobb. He's awesome and I'm a big fan, but that was 1968. Don't know why I thought it wouldn't be as good as now, but it was!
