I received my copy a couple days ago. I would be slow to blame the staff, they are dealing with crazy delays due to crazy rules imposed upon them. I don't give the USPS any slack, Covid has been around for awhile and Christmas comes the same time every year.

If you know the busiest time of the year for the post office is the first two weeks of December, you don’t mail thousands of pieces of mail during that time. The planning was very poor !

The Model A News is printed and shipped from a shop near St. Louis. They are all shipped on the same day.

I got mine on the 7th. Elsewhere online people in Florida and Oregon were reporting they received it before Xmas.

It is, as always, a great magazine and worth the wait in my opinion. Thanks to those who help produce the magazine especially Helen and Ken Ehrenhofer.

Still waiting in VA. On the bright side I am in a aviators club that sends out a monthly magazine. The USPS delivered the torn outer shipping cover with no magazine inside it. You gotta love these people.

Got my issue yesterday and realize it's been sent from the printer. So, as someone else posted, I live 35 miles from the home office which has nothing to do with the sent point.
