Have you had any discussion regarding layout? I think e.g. O'Connors Aviation Awards a nicely laid out one, though I´d prefer slightly smaller font (Whitney´s Vee´s for Victory has nice, small enough font). I really hated when they increased the font size in WW One Aero. The best option for WW1 would have been to go to 3-column layout, reduce font size while making sure than line spacing is adequate. This way readability would have been improved while word count per page would also have increased allowing reduction in page count and in turn reducing paper and shipping costs.
