McIvor Adds Mail to Spoof Front Pages Portfolio

The spoof newspaper front page business of a former Scottish Sun chief sub-editor is steadily picking up permissions from the best-known titles in the country to use their mastheads.

James McIvor produces spoof newspaper front pages as, for instance, anniversary and leaving gifts. And in the lead up to Mother's Day, he has secured the rights to use the masthead of the Scottish Daily Mail, having only yesterday appeared in a reader offer in the Evening Times.

The Mail and the Evening Times join the Scottish Sun, the Scottish News of the World and the Edinburgh Evening News which have all allowed him to create his front pages around their mastheads.

Allmediascotland.com readers can order their own spoof front page this month, at a 25 per cent discount, by visiting www.makingthenews.co.uk and quoting the code, SCOOPAMS, when buying online.
