Is it just me but it sure looks like the Picture Quality Of Trapper magazine really has gone down ? You can hardly make out the pictures in my October issue. Gives me a headache reading and looking at pictures. I guess we are lucky to have a magazine to read but why the poor quality…. I guess save a bunch of money. MD

Looking at it just now I would say the picture quality is average to slightly below average. Type legibility seems okay. Some good articles and I like the new direction taken by The Trapper in going back to their roots.

The picture quality is most likely from poor quality printing. If its a color picture, all the different plates need to line up perfectly to have a nice clear picture. A black and white one can be from poor picture developing or from making an adjustment on the press while its printing.

It does have a new owner

Ok. Maybe I just got one that had bad printing. I have been a subscriber since 1975 or 1976. Or What ever year it was first published. Also have been a subscriber to Fur-fish and Game since 1975. Should have kept all the magazines. Couple years ago editor of trapper sent me a thank you for being with them so long. It is a great magazine. *** follow up , who is the new owners ? Marty

Whoever began putting articles on paper with dark colored back grounds needs to be shot, i can't read them! Several of the mag's do this now days, guess it's what is in style but for us 'older' guys with failing eye sight it ruins the whole magazine for us, not worth getting if can't read what's in it.

Most i imagine are struggling for pictures/articles these days.
