Every one back to 1963, the year I was born. I started in 1976, when I became aware of them. When I was a student, I bought the softback editions because they were cheaper, but then eBay came along and I replaced them with hardbacks. Then I backfilled to 1963. I daren’t buy any earlier ones, because then the madness will take over and I’ll spend more than I can afford to 😮
