Another publication in our area goes dark as Signature Magazine calls it quits. The two-year old publication only produced 10 issues, but could not sustain the advertising support, according to publisher Bernard Mann, in yesterday's News & Record.

Signature is produced by Mann's flagship, Our State Magazine. The irony is that some of the editorial staff who worked on Signature will move to Our State, but five won't, including Signature's editor Vicky Jarrett.

Mann says Elizabeth Hudson, former senior editor of Our State, will be the new editor of Our State, which will now include elements of Signature.

E.C. :)
