Quote:2000 at a time which cost 70p per copy including shipping. They are A5 with 98 pages with a nice matt coated cover. They have a proper spine with the title printed on it and very importantly they have no staples which means we can get them into prisons.https://libcom.org/forums/announcements/new-acg-pamphlet-09052018#new
How does it compare with our printing costs?
Quote:and very importantly they have no staples which means we can get them into prisons.Does this mean that stapled magazines sent to prisoners don't get through and that the Standards we occasionally send to prisoners are not given them (or only when they are released)?
It appears to be a personal contact so you'd need to comradely contact the poster by PM for further details and hope he is one of those on Libcom who doesn't hold a hostility clause against us in the SPGB As for the earlier query on staples, i looked at a few websites and found nothing forbidding thosehttp://sendbookstoprisoners.co.uk/general-rules-for-delivery-of-books-to-prisoners/

Nothing on that forum.The Party uses a number of efficient, reasonably priced printers with whom we have good relationships, including Spotprint in Bradford, who have printed several leaflets and the magazine inserts and, more recently, Biddles in King's Lynn, who produced the Centenary of the Russian Revolution book. No need to look elsewhere.

Quite favourably. The Centenary of the Russian Revolution book cost £653 for 300 copies (£2.17 per copy) but would have worked out proportionately less for a longer print run. It also had around 50% more pages than the one quoted above, a glossy cover, proper spine with the title printed on it and no staples. It may be purchased at the online store as well as by post.http://www.worldsocialism.org/spgb/catalog/books/centenary-russian-revolution
