The Argosy: Part 6 - Post 1979 and various related Issues
Later Revivals of the magazine
Argosy was briefly revived in 1989 when it ran for six issues in an increasingly irregular schedule, and an odd
volume numbering whose origin remains unclear.

 v3 #2 Nov |

It was revived again in 2004 as an extremely "slick" magazine. It started as a bimonthly
but only managed two issues on that schedule before going on hiatus for the remainder of 2004
before being relaunched as Argosy Quarterly in 2005, which only lasted for a single issue.

It was revived again in 2016 as a quarterly mixing reprints from the original
pulp and new stories.

Towards the end of its life in the 1970s, Argosy issued a number of

In addition to the two UFO issues listed above, there was also a short-lived companion magazine called Argosy UFO
which seems to have lasted for eight issues in 1976/1977 on an almost bi-monthly schedule:
1976 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
 v1 #1 Jul |
|
 v1 #2 Sep |
|
 v1 #3 Nov |
|
1977 |
 v2 #1 Jan |
|
 v2 #2 Mar |
|
 v2 #3 May |
|
 v2 #4 Jul |
|
|
 Winter 1977/78 |
There was also another short-lived companion magazine called Argosy Gun
but only three issues have been located to date:
1977 |
|
|
 Fall |
|
1978 |
 Spring |
 Summer |
|
|
There were also two issues in 1976 of a retrospective anthology in magazine format
called The Best of Argosy Annual. Although this was issued to celebrate
Argosy's one hundredth anniversary, approximately one third of the
contents are SF or fantasy, most of which are reprinted from related
magazines rather than from Argosy itself.

Other issues probably exist.
