Adhesive Problem

I had another post on this subject. I did not tear the cover but I cannot let my magazine touch anything because it clings like glue. I plan to press a piece of paper over the glue and forget about it.

I did, Aaron.  I was trying to get it off the mag, so I could use it on my models, but it's impossible.

My last issue had the opposite problem. The adhesive was barely holding on...just enough to get it delivered.

Tom,

I passed on the problem to my editor as soon as I read your post yesterday. As always, when you have a problem connected to the delivery of the magazine, whether it's a damaged issue, a lost magazine, or anything else, please contact Kalmbach customer service — 800-533-6644 or 262-796-8776. They are always happy to help resolve these kinds of problems.

Besides Tom, has anyone else encountered the same problem with the mailing labels?

Regards, Aaron

I believe if we mention Aaron Skinner's name in a post, he will get a flag and reply-

So, what say, Aaron Skinner!

Matt,

I have two comments.

(A) The adhesive for the mailing label was changed. Previously FSM used something akin to rubber cement; it left a slight stain but otherwise did no damage. The new glue is not acceptable; it literally tears the cover. Please reinstate the old stickum!

(B) I was greatly in favor of the profile on Mort Künstler. I have long campaigned for FSM articles that stretch the bounds. I’d like to see a series to document how the kits are created (the drawings, the initial carving, the sprue layout, test assembly, etc.). I’m certain that the process has changed markedly since I viewed how it was done on Industry on Parade when I was a boy.

It will be moot.

“The Postal Service is on the brink of default,” Postmaster General Patrick R. Donahoe testified. “The Postal Service requires radical change to its business model if is to remain viable in the future.”
