Yes. Let’s dig the ad way. On top of the LGM sponsorship but with the same
goal, we can ask our sponsors to contribute to this initiative.

So, offer paid subscription that include
a) Individual one-year 4 issues : 50 $
b) Support one-year 4 issues : 150 $ or more
c) Institutions, libraries : 75 $
d) more options ?

Paid ads for our sponsors :
LGM past and present sponsors get a 15 % discount
a) Back cover $1500
b) Interior covers C2-C3 $1100
c) Interior page $800
Do we have to establish prices in USD and in EUR ?
LGM Sponsors get 5 (10?) complimentary copies
Advertisers get 5 complimentary copies

Any other options?
Let’s not make that too complicated but it can be done and I think we should
do it.

We aim at a paid subcribers campaign of n people (150? 250? 500? more?)
We aim at 1000 copies or more depending on sponsorship and subscribers.
Considering it takes very little time to print (5-7 working days) I would
wait until we have enough paid sponsorship to go to press, including
advertisers.

What do you think?
