UPDATE: 41 years old - and NEW! - Good News Staff - February 1975

Good News Staff

This month marks two important milestones for (he Plain Truth magazine. First, the magazine is 41 years old. From its humble origin in February 1934 - when a few hundred copies were run off a Neostyle (similar to the one pictured above) - the magazine has grown in circulation, scope and quality. Today it has a circulation of over 2,700,000 and reaches an audience of millions throughout the world. Second, the Plain Truth is 41 years NEW! It has a new format - a new look. A 16-page biweekly journal in tabloid format succeeds the previous magazine format published once a month. The new format and frequency of publication was adopted for several reasons: 1) By coming out 22 times a year - instead of 10 - we will be able to report more quickly on news events. The editorial content will be more timely and meaningful to the reader. This allows for an immediacy that is difficult to capture in a monthly magazine format. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
