My Collection Dates back to the early days of Skin and "Lung" (SCUBA) Diving.




There are great photos of huge fish, from all over the world.
Awesome vintage advertising for gear and early dive tourism.
Articles on "how to build it yourself" gear.
Data on old dive club membership and activities.
Spearfishing tournaments, regional, national and world championships.
Babes in bikinis, Stories about vintage "State of the Art" science and technology.
Features on legislation Vs. self regulation, all from the days before NAUI, PADI and NASDS.
These rare collectible magazine back issues, contain photos, and stories about the pioneers of our sport.
People like: Frederic Dumas, & Jacques Cousteau, Dr. Sam Miller, Gustav Dalla Valle, Guy Gilpatric, Ron Church, Al Giddings, Stan Waterman, Ron and Valerie Taylor, Mel Fisher, Nick Icorn, Chuck Blakeslee, Paul Tzimoulis, Neal Hess, Hans Hass, Zale Parry, Conrad Limbaugh,Dick Rutkowski, John Russick, Ron Merker, Emile Gagnan, & of course LLoyd Bridges
and so many more that endeavored to advance our sport in one way or another.




These are in varying condition. Some are very nice, others are worn or damaged.
I have these posted for sale on eBay.
This is a heads-up to this community.


Search for me by my seller name>>>>>>> donbarnett59
Or search "vintage scuba magazines"




I have several of my favorites frames in my office, as well as some other vintage scuba memorabilia.
They look fantastic.


What a great gift for your buddy (or yourself). Get them while you can. They're not making these anymore.
