Pete Howard of PosterCentral.com founded, published and edited ICE newsletter/magazine from 1997 until its demise in 2006. ICE rose with the CD era and declined with the advent of MP3s. ICE was an acronym for “International CD Exchange” in its earliest days.
It was a terrifically fun 19 years and Pete made a huge number of friends, acquaintances and business associates in the process. Check out these covers of the early newsletter evolving into the eventual full-color glossy magazine. To get a better idea of what ICE did, check out its publicity coverage.
