Sue Rothschild’s Newspaper Delivery Method

April 1996

Historical April 1996 article. Dates, prices, services and contacts describe the source period; current availability has not been established.

Sue Rothschild, former editor of The Times and loyal distributor of same in Parkview, has cleverly engineered a way to ease the burden of distributing our paper each month to the many households she serves.

She rolls each paper (about 260 each month!) and secures it with a tiny rubber band.

Then she can throw them onto the porches in her area rather than having to climb the steps of each porch. Whether she finds it helpful to wear her Times T-shirt every time she does this is not known. (Residents of Parkview are cautioned not to dismiss this little roll-up as just another throwaway paper!)
