Julie - would you be willing to share two or three of your old issues of Anna? Let me explain. My aunt has been collecting them for many years too, but every time she moved to her summer residence, which would be around May, it seems that her newsagent didn't keep her copy. I told her that since I associate with lots of great people who do needlework, I committed to looking for the two back issues for her - I even tried to buy them through either eBay or the Anna site itself, but never had any luck. If you would be willing to either scan and send by email, or maybe photocopy and post by snail mail I would be very, very grateful. Obviously I will refund any costs. Karen in Malta

It's been one of my favourite magazines for many years (the other being Piecework, with that I was a bit concerned to note that the latest issue was much slimmer than past ones...hope that doesn't indicate a similar fate!). I've got a complete set of Anna going back to the mid 80s and scattered issues before that...so plenty to keep me going for many years to come. I didn't find anything definitive in a web search either - except it was notable in its absence from places where one would have expected to find it, including the Burda site. The Canadian supplier is only listing the latest issue (couldn't tell from the photo which issue that really is)...will be interesting if my local newstand knows anything. What I did find was this fascinating link to the life of Aenne Burda, I for one hadn't realised that there was a real person with a fascinating history behind the publishing empire. http://www.aenne-burda.com/ Little on the needlecrafts side, more on fashion and dress.
