WANTED: PRINT ANGELS
The Black Country Society supports, sponsors or publishes a small number of books each year. They are written by authors who are born in the area, live locally or otherwise have a deep interest in the Black Country. Past publications have been about people, industry, buildings and culture including themes such as dialect and humour.
Books are expensive to publish – each publication may cost several thousand pounds and we want to make sure that our books are attractive and informative. We are appealing for Print Angels to help the Society support books which have a local and regional value.
For a donation you can have your name or that of a relative or friend printed in a book which will be around for many years. Supporting the Society in your will is another way in which you can help. Of course, you can give money without necessarily having a name mentioned in a publication.
