I ordered a sample copy.. it's supposed to take 1-2 weeks so I'm not sure if everyone will be able to see a hard copy before you have a chance to order one. But once I get it, you'll be able to order a hard copy for $7.20.

Newsletter design tips
Example 1
Example 2
• One-pica measurements are your friend (below the flag, between stories -- 1.5 or 2 pica spacing works too in some places)
• No bylines.. keep space between headline and story text consistent (1-1.5 pica)
• Think about boxes, strokes, drop shadows, different colored headlines
• Consider a 4-color scheme
• Wrap text around art with a non-straight edge (See example 1)
• Combine vertical and horizontal stories
Don't do this!
