My store sold out of The Bulletin this week – the edition featuring overage on the life and death of Kerry Packer so I checked with some colleagues and they had the same story. It’s the best selling issue in years. The coverage in the magazine was excellent. It was interesting to me that some customers were buying the magazine as a keepsake.
Footnote for those outside Australia: Kerry Packer controlled ACP Magazines – publisher of the Bulletin, publisher of many of Australia’s top selling magazines, the Nine TV network and a string of other businesses.
