Another discovery about xeroxing that you might not know of: many types of copiers print on both sides of the paper-saving, of course, half as much paper-even though you still pay for two copies. - LS One Book, Five Ways,,$9.75 from: William Kaµfmann, Inc. One First Street I,,os Altos, CA 94022 Originally pn;pared as a workbook for the 1977 meeting of the Association of American University Presses,-it is a de- •taiied account of how five different presses evaluated, contracted and processed the same book manuscript for publication. Contains promotion plans, details on "overhead" charged by various publishers, page and cover designs for the five books, contracts, financial analys·es and copy editing. Very valuable to any author in dealings with a publisher, or to anyone interested in some of the inner workings of the publishing business. -TB Dear Friends, Many thanks for your magazine.

Jim Devers of the Houston Stamp & Stencil Company whizzed around Houston on this motorcycle delivering stamps I 921. Devers, now seventy-five years old, is still working after fifty years with the firm. In I 929 the company claimed this was "the largest complete rubber stamp ' in the world." from The Rubber Stamp Album Dear Rain: i am a cost estimator working with the Garrett County Community Action Weatherization Project in Maryland. At the present time we are weatherizing about 20 low-income homes a month. Since our program is 3 years old and about to start the 4th year of operation, we have noticed an upsurge in trailer/ mobile homes in our applications. I have also noticed a lack of information about weatherizing the homes. This presents a dilemma on the part of myself and the surveyor. For the past year we have been offering vented underskirting and front door enclosures. The • underskirting uses a 2x2 frame and • _painted homosote with block vents. We feel that this impedes air flow under the trailer. With the 4x4 air locks/porch enclosure we feel that they will act as air locks and prevent a lot of air leakage for the trailers. I was wondering if you had any research information and/or suggestions for trailer weatherization for our office. Thank you in advance foryour help. Sincerely, Marcus Oliver Cost Estimator . Garrett Count·y, Maryland Community Action Committee Anyone having good resources for Marcus could let us know and we'll print them up.
