Finally, we managed to put up the first installment of scans from the collection of Norwegian C64 Amiga scener HBH (a.k.a. Sorry Morry, a.k.a. ZTH), who had kindly sent it to us back in 2023. Spanning from 1987 to 1989, this batch includes a couple of party invitations, an advert for the German News [ ]
It turns out that we forgot to put online some of the C64 papermags that AVH/Radwar generously provided to us back in 2019. And what a treasure trove this is! A completely lost issue of CCCP (#3), a better scan of another CCCP issue (#9), and a whole bunch of Illegal issues that had been [ ]
Enjoy the Sunday while browsing demoparty-related materials: flyers, wristbands, votekeys, posters etc. from over three decades! The oldest object is from 1992, the latest is just one day old (from Mountainbytes in Switzerland which took place this weekend). Contributions this time stem from Cthulhu, Dipswitch, JAL, and Moon. A particularly special document is the internal [ ]
Not only are we back, but we also have exciting news: HBH, a Norwegian C64 scener active in the late 1980s and early 1990s, sent us a full box of letters and flyers.

We re back with materials donated by Unlock, main organiser of the Swiss demoparty called Buenzli until 2010 and Demodays between 2011 and 2014. Included are flyers, visitor brochures, and a most rare thing brochures/reports made for sponsors and supporters. Enjoy the high quality design! The images can be viewed in the gallery at [ ]
After a long pause, here we go with another update. We did not run out of materials, not at all only out of time. Anyway, today we bring you the second batch (see first batch here) from the collection of Jugger/Panic, a well-known early 1990s Amiga pack editor and swapper from Germany. Here are [ ]
The letter collection of legendary Dutch C64 cracker Honey of 1001 Crew has provided us with a stream of treasures over the past years. Now, after five instalments, this fountain has run dry: Today, we give you the final update. It includes some fascinating materials from 1986-1987, such as letters from fellow compression expert Matcham [ ]
Today, we present you with artefacts from 32 years of copy- and demoparties from 1987 to 2019! Quite an astonishing time span, longer than the life span of some current demoscene members. The scans stem from the collections of Acidchild Bugjam, AD aka Rough, Dipswitch, Goat, Ile, Mike, Moqui, Sir Garbagetruck, Swiss Cracking [ ]
We start the New Year with a bang. The archive of C64 scener Rough had been sitting here for almost three years – until last month our heroic student assistant scanned over 400 pages in one go. With this update, we present you 269 letters by 127 individuals from 16 countries. They stem from the [ ]
Famous Scottish Atari ST cracker Zippy a.k.a Absu, member of the groups Cynix and The Medway Boys, who was very recently interviewed on Codetapper.com, provided us with photographs from his letter archive.
