Hello Wonderful Willie and Pond Water Dave, I’m continuing to enjoy your Apter Mags Chats podcast, and I recently listened to your audiobook: Is Wrestling Fixed? I didn’t know it was Broken! I really appreciate you continuing to provide your pictures and stories of your adventures in professional wrestling and all of the people that make it great. It’s nice to travel back with you to a time when your Pro Wrestling Illustrated magazine carried us around the horn with you and provided a glimpse into the world of professional wrestling outside our home territory. It was a magical time. Please, discuss the iconic Pro Wrestling Illustrated logo that resulted in the all the famous magazine covers and signature tee-shirts. How was the PWI logo developed? Who was responsible for the logo concept, design, revisions and final product, as well as the merchandising and marketing of it? Were the PWI tee-shirts and other merchandise profitable or just considered marketing for the magazine? Can you give us a revenue comparison of PWI magazine sales to merchandise sales? Thank you very much, Aaron
