Friday, May 22nd signals the return of the daily edition of the Duluth Shipping News, being printed now (Thursday) at Service Printers. Above, the first page is at left, the back page at right. I will fill in the white space on the front side each day with schedule information, pictures and stories about the boats coming to Duluth Superior this summer. Below, the clean white paper will fly through their offset press, each sheet has 8 pages of the newsletter. They turn them over and do it again on the other side, cut it and bring it over later today (Thursday); about 116,000 copies for 110 editions this summer. It make me tired just thinking about it.

Thanks, Ken. I look forward to the ‘news’ when we visit Canal Park – which we do many times in the summer. Ditto for the donation box. Dan L. from Mpls.
Your service is wonderful, it’s a part of
my life. I love to keep track of the ships
in Duluth.
Is there a way for you to put a “donation” container next to these papers? I’d be happy to give a donation for this information while in Duluth!
Hey Ken!! Keep up the good work. Your Duluth Shipping News is read all over the U.S., even down here in the great state of Alabama!! Here’s a hearty “hello” to all Boatnerds!! Y’all stay warm up there. Thanks, Ken! Jill
