The advantage of mini-catalogs: They cost as little as 10 cents delivered (vs. 75 cents or more for sending a full-dress catalog to a rented list).
The disadvantage: They’re small, usually 3.5˝ x 5.25˝ to 5˝ x 7˝. But that doesn’t have to be a bad thing. For example, rather than shrinking their full-sized catalogs, merchants such as Figi’s, Lab Safety Supply and Staples put two or three items on a page with good-sized illustrations and readable copy.
