We would prefer a replacement issue with a letter included or note attached to
the FRONT of the issue stating that it is a replacement and why.

***Most definitely
replace the entire issue! It would cause us no end of problems to
receive a 32 page insert. Put a removable sticker (of contrasting color
so as to be noticed) on the cover of the issue clearly stating that it
is a replacement for a defective issue. Most check in staff are likely
to notice information on the cover. A letter or other enclose might be
lost.
