ACCORDING to legend, the publisher of world famous
Ebony Magazine, John H. Johnson, at the inception of
publication in November 1945, would encourage his friends and family to go to
the vendors on the streets of Chicago to buy the publication. Mr Johnson had
hoped that as more and more of his friends demanded and bought his magazine,
vendors would be forced to get copies of Ebony to their newsstands.
