HistoryAmerican Digger was founded in 2004.[1] The founder is Butch Holcombe and the first issue appeared in January 2005.[2][3] It includes articles covering finds made by metal detecting, surface hunting, diving, and sifting. It also contains photo stories on old coins, Civil War and Revolutionary War relics, stone artifacts, fossils, and bottles. It was founded in response to reader requests for more material related to amateur archeology. Holcombe has said he wants to help bridge the gap between professional archeologists and amateur historians and has said he promotes only the responsible excavation and documentation of artifacts.[4] Founder Butch Holcombe is a humorist and amateur historian from Atlanta, Georgia. He was born in 1955, and since 1968 has spent numnerous hours searching for historic artifacts with a metal detector. He has since founded Greybird Publishers, who now publishes the magazine, as well as other books related to artifacts.[5] In 2011, the name American Digger was licensed as a registered trademark[6] [7][8][9][10]Circulation"The first issue of American Digger was 52 pages of black and white, with a circulation of only 500. This has now grown to 74 pages, much of which is in color, with a current print circulation of over 2000 in all 50 states, Canada, Jordan and Australia", quoted by Publisher Butch Holcombe ".[11]" "Subscriptions are also sent free to US aircraft carriers on tour. In 2012, a digital version of the print magazine was offered for the first time, resulting in a worldwide interest. The magazine now claims a readership of over 20,000 including both platforms.[12] Featured Articles
PublisherThe magazine is published by Greybird Publishing LLC, Acworth, GA. Related VenturesIn 2010, American Digger magazine took over a weekly internet radio show, Relic Roundup, previously owned and operated by My History Project, a non profit group in Atlanta, GA. The name was changed to American Digger's Relic Roundup at that time. The show averages several hundred listeners weekly, and is an extension of the magazine's focus on amateur archaeology and collecting.[19] References1. ^{{cite web|title=About Us|url=http://www.americandigger.com/aboutus.htm|publisher=American Digger|accessdate=17 November 2015}} 2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.astarrynightproductions.com/creative/pages/holcombe.htm|title=Butch Holcombe Creative Artists|publisher=}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.treasureexpo.com/index.htm|title=Save BIG with $9.99 .COMs from GoDaddy!|website=Go Daddy}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.eighteenquestions.com/index_files/18QButchHolcombe.htm|title=PACE Local 2-286 - Philadelphia, PA|website=www.eighteenquestions.com|access-date=2009-05-21|archive-url=https://archive.is/20080704062025/http://www.eighteenquestions.com/index_files/18QButchHolcombe.htm|archive-date=2008-07-04|dead-url=yes|df=}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.astarrynightproductions.com/creative/pages/holcombe.htm|title= Creative Artist Community |publisher=}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.trademarkia.com/american-digger-85397156.html|title=Apply for a Trademark.
