Does anyone have contact details of a printing company who could do a ( small ) print run ~ 1000 copies ? - on newsprint / newspaper ?
According to what I remember when we used to have printing jobs done for our buxiban, in order to use “newspaper” type paper, you need a big press run.
1000 copies is quite minimal, and so you might want to look at some other type of paper.
Alternatively, you could contact some of the weekly or bi-monthly publications which actually print on “newspaper” type paper, and ask the price for a full page ad . . . . . . plus 1000 copies of the ad printed extra . . . . . and that might be one way to get your mission accomplished . . . . . .
I mention the weekly or bi-monthly publications because I think their circulations are smaller, hence their advertising rates for full page ads might be lower . . . . . . however I don’t have any solid data on that . . . . . . .
