What galls me about that deal was HOW SS&DI was "executed."
AS I UNDERSTAND IT, Petersen Publishing (or, maybe one of its successors, but I think this happened before it was sold,) bought it, then sent "Junior Stock Johnny Dianna" personally, out to the East Coast (Alexandria, Virginia) to SHUT IT DOWN. Which, he did. It MUST have hurt him to do that.... If Petersen had had something to replace it, I could KIND OF understand that way of doing business (No, I couldn't,) but the truth was, they didn't (and HAVEN'T) had anything remotely like it since then. Steve Collison was bery, bery, good to me, publishing every article I ever sent him, and I am no Mr. Dirt, believe me!!! It sticks in my craw to this day, they way they killed that magazine and left the market to wither and die. Shame on them!!! I don't have them anymore ![]() And, yes I miss it!!!!
