128-Year-Old 'American Printer' Folds, Citing Bad Economy
American Printer, a 128-year-old trade magazine, is closing after the August issue.
“There won’t be a September issue,” editor Katherine O’Brien said in a blog post.
“Penton, our parent company, stuck with us through some mighty lean months, but ultimately, there was no foreseeable model to achieve profitability,” she added.
American Printer began life in 1883 as Inland Printer. After World War 2, the magazine was purchased and merged into another title named THE INLAND and AMERICAN PRINTER AND LITHOGRAPHER.
