In Sept 2019 Warner Losh was looking for copies of the first volumes of UNIX NEWS / Login.

Clem Cole noted that the Usenix Archives were also looking.

Kurt H Maier, noted he had pages from 1976, Volume 1, Number 4.

Jeremy C. Reed pointed to multiple items available online. 
His email appears in a separate email thread on TUHS.

I stumbled on UNIX NEWS Number 1 in the Internet Archive
	<https://archive.org/details/unix_news_july-30-1975>

Which is from a near complete Usenix collection of ‘;login' from 1975 to 2000
	<https://archive.org/details/usenix-login?tab=collection&sort=-date>.

1979 (Volume 4) is missing from the series [ as at Oct 2024 ]

I wasn’t able to navigate the Usenix website to find the Archives Clem Cole mentioned, to confirm they also had copies.

I also stumbled on a pointer to “John Gilmore’s original scans”  from 1975 - 1978, presumably the base for the Usenix / Archive.org set.

It’s seems that the call for materials was pretty successful.
