POSTCARD PRINTER & PUBLISHER RESEARCH

 

Most TPA issues are out of stock for many years now. Usually the past three issues are available to interested collectors. I used the ‘printing-on-demand’ scheme for some years, to have more back issues on offer. This has proved not very practically, due to up and down of reproduction quality and ever increasing prices.

However, I feel that some material once published deserves to be made available to interested collectors and researchers. Now I have chosen a couple of articles from old TPA issues, starting with issue 13. Converted into pdf-files, a format that is widely used for exchange of data, as software to read or print is available free of charge.

Each article bears an own number. Please mention the number(s), a valid return address and send an e-mail to the mentioned address. Within a couple of days you will receive the requested article(s) in pdf-file format. This service might be available as direct download from this site in the near future. Depends on degree of interest and the development of the currently strongly increasing transfer data amount of this site. Make sure to read the notice and technical information first. Thank you!
