ONCE AGAIN The PLAIN TRUTH takes a great leap forward! At last we have a printing plant of our own of major size, with giant rotary magazine presses capable of printing a magazine as large as The PLAIN TRUTH has grown. You are holding in your hands now, a copy of the first issue we have ever been privileged to print on our own presses! I believe some of the facts about this great step forward will be interesting to our readers. For more than twenty years we have operated our own printing department. But until now, it has never been large enough to print The PLAIN TRUTH - even when this magazine was a small 8-page paper. Many of our readers know that prior to the time God placed me in His ministry, I had devoted twenty years in the advertising field - mostly with magazines and newspapers. I learned. more than fifty years ago, that few magazines can afford profitably to print their own publications. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
