Woman's Day is a magazine aimed at a female readership, covering such subjects as food, nutrition, fitness, beauty and fashion. There is currently an Australian version and an American version.The US edition was first published in 1931 as a free A&P in-store menu/recipe planner, calculated to make customers buy more by giving them meal ideas in an easy-to-read format available inside A&P grocery stores.Following the 1936 opening of A&P's first supermarket (in Braddock, Pennsylvania), A&P expanded Woman's Day in 1937 through a wholly-owned subsidiary, the Stores Publishing Company. The magazine featured articles on crafts, food preparation and cooking, home decoration, needlework, health and childcare, selling for two cents a copy.官网:http://www.womansday.com/
Sold exclusively in A&P stores, Woman's Day had a circulation of 3,000,000 by 1944. This had reached 4,000,000 by the time A&P sold the magazine to Fawcett Publications in 1958. By 1965, Woman's Day had climbed to a circulation of 6,500,000. In a mid-1960s appeal to Madison Avenue, an ad for Woman's Day showed a friendly pharmacist named I.A. Morse next to copy that claimed: So Woman's Day doesn't tell a lot of funny stories, and it doesn't run pictures of fashions its readers could never afford. Like I.A. Morse, Woman's Day -- more than any other magazine -- is a trusted advisor in the day in day out work that's a housewife's chosen profession. That's our profession. And we're proud of it. Like Doc Morse Woman's Day talks man to man to women. Download From Link#1: Rapidshare.com Link#2: easy-share
