I picked up the recent issue and was pleasantly surprised. It had been two or three years since I last checked the magazine out--I thought it was a waste of money back then. If the April issue is any indication, they are on the right track to pick up some new subscribers just from this board. There are interesting articles detailing the Maple Crispette set, the Cracker Jack sets, a smaller one on the T222 and Joseph Hall Cabinets, as well as a section dedicated to the Goudey issues and even an article that details how you can tell the difference between real Goudeys and reprints. A couple of contributors from the board have written articles--Pete Calderon and Eric Eichelkraut. I picked mine up at Barnes and Noble, and at $19.99 for one year (12 issues), I think I am going to subscribe. I hope they can sustain this quality in future issues, and imagine could use submissions from knowledgeable collectors.

Brian
