Seymour G. Pond Years: '95-2006
<>Magazine format, printed on coated paper, w/significant improvement in stock quality + increase in the size of the issues (see individual descriptions). Issues #26-28 were printed at our previous club printer. Starting with issue #29 through issue #42, iL TRIDENTE was printed using new technology (from digital file) at a new printer, resulting in a significant improvement in overall publication quality, especially in regards to photographic reproduction. Another increase in quality began starting with issue #43 due to again changing printers.
Laser or Pdf copies: Starting with #25 all the “ITs” were stored on computer in various formats. Issues #25-28 are in pieces and must be reassembled but from #29 forward complete issues are reprintable (except #35 due to corruption). Laser reprints of these are on quality 8-1/2” x 11” paper. Issues #25-28 have print quality exceeding the original. Lasers or pdfs are a good alternative where no original exists. However due to the time & paper involved we must charge $20 for a complete laser print. We highly suggest you consider the $5 article abstract reprints (or a complete or partial issue emailed as a pdf) instead of completely reprinted issues with advertising.
