Advertising Policy

Advertisements for books, supplies, and sources of information for use in the Society's activities. Advertisements are offered largely as a service to the members. We prefer ads for goods and services that are educational, that are useful in the Society's re-creation activities, or that have unique value to the members of the Society. We do not print ads for contemporary fiction, for roleplaying or wargames, or for goods and services that are fantasy-oriented.

Classified Advertising

Classified-style advertising is printed in the Village Green section, the first page of the advertising section. The charge is 35¢ per word. (We define "word" as any grouping of letters or numbers separated on both sides by a space.) There is no charge for typesetting, and you may specify certain words or phrases in italic, bold, or bold italic. Classified ads must include a name, address and zip code.

All classified advertisers receive a photocopy of the advertisement.

Display Advertising


Mechanical Instructions

All advertising must be submitted camera-ready. We are unable to prepare ads for our clients.

Art Preparation

All advertising materials must be digitally supplied, high resolution in black and white or grayscale. We reserve the right to adjust ads as needed to meet format and mechanical requirements or to make them camera-ready, and to charge for such work.

Position Requests

Position requests will be complied with when possible, but are not guaranteed.

Tear Sheets

Upon publication, we send a tear sheet from the issue to all display advertisers.
