Why not try contacting the author of the article and securing

My uninformed opinion is that copying a full issue would not be fair  
use, even if it's only one article. You could (first sale doctrine)  
loan the issue, but copying would be a problem. This journal does sell  
individual issues ($75). I don't see it available as a separately  
cataloged item in any library, though.

They also don't do permissions through CCC.
