It is thin, and down to 60 pages.
The November-December issue will begin to publish the paper on a 'semi-monthly' every other month schedule.
There will be more coverage of DVD's, memorabilia and other facets of film collecting.
Claire Fliess and Lenore Howard have passed their duties onto Wayne Youngblood who is in charge with the title of Editorial Director, Pop Culture.
Mr.Youngblood asks if there are any questions, concerns or comments to please address them to: Wayne L. Youngblood, Editorial Director, Pop Culture Division, F+W Publications, 700 E. State St., Iola WI 54990-0001 or wayne.youngblood@fwpubs.com
The paper is filled with articles and some scant film adverts, but one of the few full page 16mm dealers as T.J. Shaffran had stopped advertising a few months ago.
J.G. Nelson was featured in a special obituary in the current issue.
Fellow dealer/collector Henry Ottinger, wrote a very interesting bio, about his love of films. Especially stating that if a film was 'beet red,' Jerry would always defend it in description as: 'oh, it's just a little pink.' Jerry loved film so much, that he was sad to know that film was not thriving as it had several years ago. However, he stayed tried and true as a film hobbyist and dealer, exclaiming that film was superior and surpassed video in quality.
Jerry had to sell his films due to his failing health after a heart attack. He cherished the film business.
Nelson's family is welcoming the public to share interesting stories with them about Jerry. Please send them to: Ted and Connie Zasada, 910 Magnor Lake Lane Clayton, WI 54004 USA
