MARINE BUYERS IN 1973-'74

ENGINEERING NEWS

Total circulation numbers are meaningless. Some magazines, apparently not wanted by thousands of shoreside buyers, inflate their total circulation numbers with thousands of non-buyers. The only readers of any value to marine advertisers are those with the authority to purchase... the shoreside buyers.

You be the judge... compare the readers of both magazines... separate the buyers from the non-buy- ers...for the one reaching the largest number of men you know can give business to your company. .. FOR THE ONE REACHING THOUSANDS MORE BUYERS.
