Re: [Amc-list] Kenosha Bound For THE SHOW!!

[Frank Swygert <farna@xxxxxxx>]

If I sell out at the show I'll just print more! I decided to do this
now instead of waiting until I get around to the major re-write of the
history/resto book I printed in 97 or so. Might not try publishing the
bigger book again -- a lot of work and not much chance of getting a big 
publisher to pick it up. I self-published the last one and sold about
500 copies, but that was over a three year period. Sold 300 the first
year (most the first three months I advertised), the others over the
next two. I made a little money, but that's a LOT of work for little
gain. Sort of like the magazine...
