Frequently Asked Questions

A local bookstore can also special order new issues from our distributor on your behalf.

I am trying to find a poem, recipe, or story that appeared in a past issue of Ideals. At this time we do not have a way to easily locate material from all our past issues. If you know the specific issue and year in which the poem appeared, the author’s name, or exact title, we might be able to locate it for you. However, please keep in mind that we are a small office and we are unable to devote a lot of time researching. We suggest posting this question on our Facebook page. We have many fans and collectors who may be familiar enough with the magazines and might recognize it. You can sometimes find what you are looking for by doing a quick internet search.
I would like to use a poem or photograph that appeared in Ideals. Ideals buys only one-time rights to the articles, poems, and photographs published in our books and magazines. Consequently, in most cases we cannot give permission to reprint any selections from our publications. We may need to refer you to the original author, copyright holder, or photographer. In a few cases, Ideals does own the work. Contact Ideals for information regarding the exact piece you wish to use and in what manner it will be reproduced. Email us: IdealsInfo@hbgusa.com
