In February we celebrated our fifth anniversary in style with a party for our contributors, illustrators, advisers, printers and designers, at No. 50, Albemarle Street – former home of the publisher John Murray. We’ve come a long way in five years thanks to the support of our subscribers. The first issue went out to 600 people, the envelopes were stuffed on the kitchen table and we made more trips to the local post box with bulging carrier bags than we can bear to remember! This month, over 5,000 copies of the Spring issue went out to subscribers in more than 60 countries around the world, and hundreds of copies of the latest Slightly Foxed Edition – No. 5: Priscilla Napier, A Late Beginner – followed them.
