Hello all,
Recently I have been trying to find Le Pli 118-119-120 as it has the most Eric Joisel diagrams of any single book. If anyone has any information on where to acquire this magazine it would be quite helpful.

I strongly recommend asking the same question on the French forum (http://www.pliagedepapier.com/forum/index.php)

You may have luck finding these issues in the lending library of your origami society.
E.g. Origami Deutschland has #118-120: https://papierfalten.de/documents/bibli ... o_mfpp.pdf

Good question. I have never looked into "Le Pli" before your query, so I wasn't sure how to acquire it. I think I found a way.

"Le Pli" is a periodical publication produced by MFPP (French Movement of Paper Folders), and "Le Pli" is referenced on the MFPP web site ( https://mfpp-origami.fr/en/publication/le-pli/ ). I am not an MFPP member, but translation of the page indicates that back-issues are available in digital format on the website for members. I believe that, if you register as an MFPP member, you might be able to get a digital download copy for MFPP members. This would not be in hard copy, but it might be suitable for your needs in this case.

I am not sure how hard it is to register as a member of MFPP. My French is.. terrible. But if you use a browser with translation, like Google Chrome, you might be able to succeed. Be persistent :)

Good luck!

Pretty sure anyone can register as a member at the MFPP. There is a 45 euro yearly fee however (mitigated if you plan on attending the yearly May convention). Also, looks like digital version for older «Le Pli» are available at 2.5 euros each (strange, there is more info on the French version of the page than the English version.)
