The Second 50 Forum was an independent monthly newspaper. Twenty-five thousand copies were published each issue. Regular features cover a variety of topics from finances to travel, leisure, food, health and gardening. “The purpose of this newspaper is to provide a true forum or the presentation of news and views of interests to mature St. Louisans.” |
