Ancient American Magazine Needs Your Help
Dear Friends of Ancient American,
We are all aware of the difficult economic climate we are currently
facing in many areas of business today. The print industry
(Newspapers, national and local; books; magazines, comics) has been
burdened in two ways. One; competition from the digital media
so
easily available, and the constant increase in operation costs (paper
increase, U.S. postage increase, UPS increase and printing).
Our biggest distributor has
been, since the day we started,
International Periodical Distributors of California, which is now
Source Interlink of Bocca Rotan, Florida. As of this past
April,
Source Interlink has filed for protection under current bankruptcy
laws. Source Interlink was about 65% of AA’s gross
revenue which is
now gone. We will not be able to sign up with another
distributor that
we need until we can produce the required larger print runs to take on
a new retail distributor.
So for now, AA
will become a subscriber based magazine only
until we can afford to print the larger runs of 25,000 copies per issue.
For now, we are looking for
contributions to help sustain AA and
help us grow so we can meet the demands for larger output of AA.
We are implementing
“Friends of Ancient American”. We are
asking our AA subscribers, who are able, to help with a major
contribution of $1000 to join us in supporting AA. As a member of
“Friends of Ancient American”, you get these
benefits:
• Lifetime Subscription
A. Your subscription
B. Gift a library of your
choice
• Free Ad Space of 1/2” per
issue on a classified page to buy/sell
artifacts, collector books, announce meetings, outings
/adventures, scheduling group activities, etc...
• Organized site tours, when available
at AA’s discretion.
• Back Issue magazines at wholesale cost
• All books in AA bookstore at cost
• Help us make a difference, be a
supporter of something you care about!
