...evening of May 10, 1866, 400 copies of the new journal arrived from the printer and were placed on sale at Richardson's book store, and the morning's mail carried the first Advocate to each of the Overseers and every member of the Corporation. When split in faculty opinion forestalled disciplinary action, the publication was allowed to "live or die on its own merits."

In the bar, they walked up to a group of strikers, tossed them the proofs of a statement that was running on Page One.

Its ad cost only $76,240, gave the catalogue a guaranteed circulation of 1,360,000. For another $22,000, Lionel got 600,000 additional catalogues to distribute on its own. Clucked advertising manager Hanson: "An arrangement like this should solve our problem for a year anyway." Liberty wished it could say the same...
