Manuscripts
Approx. 40 items: letters, memos and reports related to the "Alternative Delivery System." This plan involved free distribution, in parts of the San Gabriel Valley, of a special editorial product called "The Best of the Times." This section consisted of recent Times articles and plenty of ads. It was a way of jump-starting a stagnant advertising and circulation zone. LAT canceled the program in early 1981 after about five months. It was not working as hoped.
