Be The Onion's Hero for Once
The Onion is seeking public assistance to recover missing issues from its 270-year archive. The publication is requesting that individuals who possess these rare editions contact them for potential purchase.
Why it matters
Preserving historical media archives is essential for maintaining cultural records, even for satirical publications.
The Onion prides itself on being a self-sufficient entity, even going so far as to making our own pens that use the EZ-flowing blood of interns as ink. Now, however, we are asking for your assistance.
Certain issues of The Onion newspaper are mysteriously missing from our 270-year archive, and you might be able to help us recover them.
