Is anyone else out there missing the May-June 2025 issue of FAJ, or am I the only one who is still sitting and waiting for it? It's about a month overdue based on prior experience. Seems John Calderone has sold it to an outfit that publishes "vintage" stuff, and the web site is totally new. The site now says not to contact them for 30 days if you don't get an issue, and I'm just checking with you guys before I complain to them. Hope I'm the only one missing the latest issue, and that it's not a portent of things to come.
 
It appears the current ownership has taken a successful product and done their best to ruin it. They do not answer messages, they do not answer posts on their FB page. So contacting them is pretty difficult. I have seen other posts on different sites and there seems to be several reasons as to why there has been no delivery of FAJ.
 
I was on the photo today with the office manager of the company that purchased FAJ. I am happy to say that we all should be receiving the past issue any day now. I am going to share with you that in the next few week another issue will arrive that is dated for June. Lets give the new owners the time to work all the bugs out of their system.

Help out write a story or submit some photos. Lets keep the publication alive. This way we all can enjoy it.

Thanks.
 
My May/June issue finally arrived today. Interestingly, the return address on the envelope is the same as it always has been . . . John Calderone's post office box on Staten Island.
