Popular Woodworking: Notice of Chapter 11 Bankruptcy: I'm a Creditor - Philip1231 - 03-18-2019

So did anyone else get the "Notice of Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Case" letter for the F+W media bankruptcy?
I am trying to figure out if its just routinely sent to all magazine subscribers or if its due to PWW owing me $50 for a "Tips and Tricks" article that I submitted and they accepted.

I think you have the honor of being in the long line of creditors.

I wonder about Lee Valley's investment? However, noticed a paucity of their ads in recent issues......

I don't have one yet.

Sounds like you're on the official list of creditors, more info is in the other Pop Wood thread.

PW will join AW unless someone picks it up ... that would be a risky investment in this era.

PW has stopped publishing Trade of Tricks under the current editorial team.

And Tricks of the Trade, too.  Trade of Tricks sounds like something shady women would do to avoid income taxes.

May be time to hire a high powered attorney specializing in woodworking cases. I guess I will have to split the spoils of this case, so its worth $25 to any legal beagle that is up to the challenge. Stay tuned.

Save the $25...find a pro bono attorney

The first pages I browsed in a PW issues were the Tricks of the Trade. They were the only thing that, to me, could compare to FW (which in recent years has produced some lousy shop tips).

Very easy, here's the Proof of Claim form:

You can get the case number and name information from the link in the original thread here on that topic.
