[edit]

The earliest SE PA edition I have is a 1973 issue; I've edited the article accordingly. :) Cosmo2006 13:16, 20 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Went through my collection and made the necessary date changes and edition additions, including Northwest, Illinois, Lake Ontario, and my beloved Tampa Bay. Trainman 04:29, 28 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Added information for Oregon editions gathered from my collection. PDXORTV (talk) 08:11, 17 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Iowa edition

[edit]

Someone should check, but I believe the Iowa regional edition also contained TV listings for the Davenport-Rock Island-Moline market. Assuming it can be verified, the table for that section should be modified accordingly. [[Briguy52748 (talk) 21:13, 29 January 2009 (UTC)]][reply]

Consumer Magazines and Farm Publications Rates and Data

[edit]

I have taken the liberty of checking past issues of Standard Rates and Data Service's Consumer Magazines and Farm Publications Rates and Data books and checked the information they had concerning TV Guide. Each of these books listed all the editions TV Guide had at that point in time. Although I could not go further back than 1959, I'm sure this should clear up some of the magazine's history.149.175.45.121 (talk) 22:08, 1 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Circulation (1988)

[edit]

Bellczar, I appreciate the addition of the circulation figures but why didn't you include those for New Jersey or Scranton-Wilkes Barre?

Also, shouldn't they have called it the Wyoming-Black Hills edition, instead of Northern Colorado? I'm pretty sure that Greeley and Fort Collins were served by the Denver edition.70.89.177.161 (talk) 01:44, 31 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I also love the circulation figures. New Jersey and Scranton were no longer being published in 1988. But there are 3 editions that were around in 1988 that you did not provided circulation figures: Central Pennsylvania, Fresno and Western New York State. 70.145.141.93 (talk)Brian Craig70.145.141.93 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 04:03, 28 February 2011 (UTC).[reply]

I found the circulation figures for the editions Brian Craig was wondering about. I will adjust the table accordingly.192.220.135.34 (talk) 19:06, 21 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Northern Colorado edition

[edit]

Someone moved the Northern Colorado edition from Colorado to Wyoming, claiming "despite the title, it primarily served Wyoming." This is not true. The population of the Wyoming counties in the edition area is 378,616 (2013 census bureau estimates). Weld and Larimer counties of Colorado by themselves have more than that. The population of the parts of states served by this edition is as follows: Colorado, 654,859 (49.3%), Nebraska, 95,234 (7.2%), South Dakota, 198,890 (15%), Wyoming, 378,616 (28.5%). I have moved the Northern Colorado edition back to Colorado. Bellczar (talk) 09:32, 6 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Lima

[edit]

The microfilm says Central Ohio split into Lima and Columbus Metropolitan on 3/4/1979. Did Lima become Toledo-Lima? Fuddle (talk) 03:20, 26 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • I found my answer at the Library of Congress. Added Lima ed.

1980s "TV Guide" Editions on Microfilm

[edit]

Historians studying "TV Guide" should be aware that InfoTrac microfilmed various editions in the early 1980s. As I recall, those included the San Francisco Bay Area edition, the Kansas City edition and the New York City edition. This was the era when InfoTrac was on cartridges.Jab73 (talk) 10:11, 16 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
