Hello!!!!

My name is Douglas. I was just looking at your post for February 24, 1972 from the Florida/Georgia TV Guide. You wouldn't happen to have the Florida-Georgia edition of TV Guide between years January 1975- August 1978?
 
Remember this edition really well. I've lived in Columbus, Gainesville and Jacksonville.
Never Orlando or Tallahassee though. These locations made for a strange TV Guide. Kinda
like the leftovers........all thrown in together. They had about as much in common as peaches
and oranges.

The Florida-Georgia edition was defunct by that time. There was a South Georgia edition that served Columbus, Macon, Albany,
and Tallahassee, and a Northern Florida edition for Jacksonville and Gainesville, but I don't have any of either from the '70s.
