Default 30th Anniversary Issue of Parker Pages!
What a great issue with a diversity of articles. I'm glad it's raining today so I don't feel guilty sitting inside to read.

Thanks to our excellent editors and talented contributors!

I'm anxiously awaiting my copy - Please Mister Postman look and see is there a copy in your bag for me?! (...oops, I'm showing my age!)

I was surprised to find my copy in the mailbox last evening, I never receive mine before you guys are all finished reading yours.

Looks like another good one, although I didn't have enough time to do more than briefly look through it.

Our box of editors copies arrived Monday and the membership issues arrived Tuesday! So unusual for the USPS.

I have received the over run box and then received my and Benjamin's personal issues 30 days later. I think they rotate alphabetically as who are mailed first. Just my guess. Ben watching it for a long time.

The over run copies also arrived. I have waited 30 days for my and Benjamin's to show. I think they rotate alphabetically on who's go first. Ben watching this a long time.

I dunno I worked in the magazine printing/mailing industry for a number of years , and a 3,000 mailing would normally be sent all at once . You may be correct , but from past experience I don’t see that happening . Now how it’s handled at the initial USPS bulk mail centers it hits are another matter that’s totally foreign to me anylonger .

Parker Pages is sent from Village Press to the USPO in one shipment, What happens after that is all done, or not done, by the US Postal Service.
