AFDCS Changes Journal’s Frequency

The board of directors of the American First Day Cover Society has voted to publish its award-winning journal First Days six times a year, rather than eight, and with more pages in each issue. The vote was unanimous.

Beginning in 2015, each issue will now have 80 pages, rather than a mix of 64- and 80-page issues, yielding an increase in content, and will be published on a more regular basis, easier for members and advertisers to anticipate.

“The change shows our continued commitment to the printed journal, and we hope reducing the number of issues will lead to stability in our publishing schedule and reduce expenses in the process,” said Todd Ronnei, chairman of the board.

The American First Day Cover Society is the world’s largest not-for-profit organization dedicated to the collecting of FDCs. Each issue of First Days is published in full color and includes articles, columns, Society business, a non-commercial Cover Exchange, and the best collection of FDC advertisements anywhere.
