Does anyone know of any online archives that have issues of The Sporting News? I'd love to be able to check out their Pro Football Yearbook issues from the '80s and '90s.

Go to Archive.org and search Sporting News. Also, Newspaperarchive.com has old issues under the state of Missouri and the city St Louis (not Saint Louis. They both are listed).
