There is a description in the text of the original Stereophile being a pamphlet-sized, typewritten magazine, or something of that sort. I am reasonably certain that the original magazine was in a larger format, 8 1/2 X 11 I think, typeset as well, in black and white with a cover of red, black and white. (I have copies around here someplace, but as one might guess, I can't find them at the moment.) The move to a pamphlet-sized, typewritten format was perhaps some years later and done, I believe, as a cost-saving change. If I ever find my copies, I can provide some more detail. I remember going out at lunchtime in Washington, DC in 1969 and 1970, buying up older copies of the magazine, as it was one of my favorites. At one time I had a prospectus, probably from 1962, advertising the publication. Being rather young at the time, I didn't subscribe immediately; even then, the cost of the equipment JGH was reviewing was beyond my means, though I did subscribe a few years later, about the time I started looking for back issues in DC. Stereophile published bound collections of the first couple of years, in the larger format, that I bought and have buried here as well. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kinrossus (talk • contribs) 14:27, 26 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
