I tend to aqree with Dick on this but from a different angle. Besides
what is commonly called editorial (columns, reviews and features) are
the ads that often attracts the eye to a magazine after they've seen the
front cover.
Back about 12 years ago, my good friend, Billy Click paid me a
complement saying the best thing about the S Gaugian were the back cover
ads that I shot for Southwind Models. There is nothing worse than when
the content of a magazine looks like a computer that has frozen with the
same ads running month after month. i.e. AM's in the Dispatch, rubber
roadbed ads in the Gaugian. I remember some AF seller wanting an engine
with the brass button on the frame month after month--since I haven't
seen his ad recently, I guess he found one!
