Acme ad is on bottom of A1

A 6-column by 1-inch bottom of the page ad banner was printed on page A1 of Saturday's Beacon Journal. Is this the first time in recent times for selling this sort of advertisement on page A1?
There also was a 6-column by 3-inch ad for a carpet store on page B3, the community news page.

The Beacon also has recently been using a tiny mug shot each day at the top of that page to showcase staff members.

For more random observations on the news media elsewhere, click on the headline.

Ads the only thing that keeps newspapers in business. The ads are not that big a deal to me.
