Sports Northwest Magazine, 1980s-90s

Most of these issues were borrowed from and returned to Jake Moe, former publisher of Sports Northwest in Seattle. Jake lent me every issue he could find in his garage. (Thanks Jake!) If you have any issues not listed here (see this list) that I could borrow, please click here. If the Notes column says "reference," then the contents may be useful for future reference, but I haven't made detailed notes on them for now. The ID column below has links to review notes.
