Recent big increases in British Bank charges have put a handling-charge of 25P (30 cents) on EACH cheque from overseas. It is economically impossible for Wargamer's Newsletter to absorb this charge. Overseas subscribers sending dollar or non-sterling cheques must ADD 30 cents to each cheque. American Express drafts, International Money Orders or Sterling drafts for the specific amount do not need this additional handlingcharge.
