Online Holdings Notes

The [Windsor] Collegiate Era is a newspaper within the newspaper: Border Cities Era.

When the issues were bound, the front and back covers (and the front and back inside covers) were removed, even though they were part of the page numbering. For the most part, pages 1-2 and the last 2 pages (usually pages 15-16 or pages 11-12) are missing. It is likely that less content is missing than would appear at first glance.
