The Monthly Progress was founded in 1946 and was published for 77 volumes until 2022. Starting in 2021 our news, articles, and history was moved online here on our website.
Since 2010 a specific effort has been underway to develop and maintain an archive of our materials digitally.
I recently finished a small project to compile multiple collections of paper copies of the Progress I have acquired over the years. These are now stored in two plastic totes each year’s volume with its own manilla folder. There is a folder for every year from 1946 through 2017. Volumes from around 2012 forward to 2022 I have digitally since for the most part I did the layouts.
Compiling these two storage boxes of issues has alerted me to a few individual issues missing from the archive. I have created a table below. Please check your homes, parents homes, files, storage, and that basket you keep in the bathroom to see if you have any issues we are missing we can use to complete the series.
The goal is to have all the issues scanned which would give access to all our members to dive back in time into the world of the German Hungarians in the decades from the 40s to today.
