Michael also attended the Pasadena Narrow Gauge Convention
and stopped by the MRH booth to say hello – here’s a photo

Joe Fugate.
MRH staff notes - 3
smaller ads. So we collected the smaller ads all together in the
Hobby Marketplace and the “we can’t find the ad” comments
went away on these smaller ads.
Every so often, someone asks us why a given advertiser’s logo
isn’t listed on our Sponsors page (in the front of the magazine)
even though they’re an advertiser. The answer’s easy – they’re
a Hobby Marketplace advertiser, not a Sponsor.
In other words, if you want to find
all
the advertisers hosted in
MRH, then you need to look at
both
the Sponsors page
and
the
Hobby Marketplace section.
Sending private notes to other subscribers
Did you know you can send private messages to other subscrib-
ers through the MRH website?
First, you have to be a subscriber – but subscribing’s free, so
that should be easy enough. If you’re not a subscriber, just
Sponsors vs Hobby Marketplace
Model Railroad Hobbyist has two kinds of advertisers: Sponsors
and Hobby Marketplace advertisers. Sponsors place ads with
us for more months at a time, and they’re also larger ads (quar-
ter page or larger).
Because a Sponsor spends more with MRH, they get the noteri-
ety of being on the Sponsors page. Hobby Marketplace ads, on
the other had, are smaller ads, and they appear classified-ads-
style collected together in the Hobby Marketplace section.
In the early days, we placed the smaller ads throughout the
magazine just like we did the larger Sponsoring ads, but we
received a lot of feedback that “we can’t find the ad” for the
MRH-Sep 2013
