I gave you the link to the ad because from there you can download the Summer 2017, and Fall 2017 issues of Gems & Gemology for free, so take advantage of that. It's my favorite trade mag, and I hope to be able to swing the yearly subscription so I have the hard copy again soon. I can't share that with everyone though, and this way y'all can share it too.
