Quest (British magazine)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Quest was a collectable magazine published in the United Kingdom by Marshall Cavendish from the late 1980s to the early 1990s.

Quest was of their 'Partworks' educational range[1] covering a range of science and technology related topics, such as construction, cities, transport and drugs. The articles in each part were categorized under six topics: The living world, planet Earth, futures, energy and resources, new technology, and space frontiers.

Quest was available in fortnightly, hole-punched editions which would often come with a collectable element, such as playing cards for a 'trivial pursuit-like game'[2] or cardboard models. There were 60 regular issues – enough to fill three official binders which came with special editions of the magazine (of which there were four).[2]
