I emailed the subscription office for Girls' Life with a request to buy some of the back issues. Hopefully, they're able to fulfill a request that far back and I can get some nice scans of the double page ads that were in the magazine. (*Kicks self for throwing away her collection of back issues several years ago.*)  They also had an article about PC software for girls at around the same time Purple Moon debuted (that was probably sponsored by them). So that would be a nice bonus to have. Fingers crossed. ---

Edit (11/7/19): I've gotten a hold of them. They've got my billing and shipping details. My card hasn't been charged yet though. I suspect that they ship back issue requests out with the regular subscriptions. (Which would mean I'm not getting it until around the start of December.)  They haven't said they can't do a request that far back though. So we'll see. ---

Edit (11/13/19):  Card's been charged. Issue is in the mail. Now to wait and see if my memory is correct.

Edit (11/19/19):  The magazine just arrived and I was wrong! The ad campaign did not start in the August/September '97 issue! But, this issue did have the feature on girl games that I was talking about. I'll scan that and add it to the advertisement article. I'll try again with the next issue when my card rolls over for the month.
