Krause Parent Company Has Filed Bankruptcy

They're gone. LITERALLY.

The books division was sold to Penguin.
The collectibles magazines to "Active Interests Media".
There was basically nothing left, so they filed to dissolve the bankruptcy.

It seems they need to update their imagery.

That is terrible.

Print publications are sadly and unfortunately dying a slow death.. I doubt if anything can save them. Most, if not all, will be gone within 5 years.

One of the Krause-now-AIM pubs just reported their statistics. For those who don't know, every publication is required to report once a year in the pub itself. It's either a table or a block of print and usually buried on the last few pages.

You have to report the average # for the 12 months and the most recent copy, the # printed, mailed, distributed through newsagents and given away free.

Anyway for whichever pub it was, the press run was around 14K and the number mailed to subscribers was a little over seven thousand.

Not exactly a major force...

The Numismatist also prints their data in the November issue, for 2018 it was 16.6k copies and a total distribution of 15043.
