Well, because I'm tired of opening up the Magazines forum and getting fright after fright with each new terrible magazine release these days, I decided to be the change I want to see in the world. 🌈✌
Question for discussion: What are your favourite all-time magazine issues? What are your favourite all-time editorials? What did you love about the issues? Why did they spark joy for you?
I'm inspired by Vince Aletti's book Issues. Have a look at the Vince Aletti thread, @alwaysademo generously scanned some of the book:
Vince Aletti is a photography critic and writer. He has perhaps one of the largest personal magazine collections in the world. He puts out a great fashion book called "Issues" in 2019, in which Vince curated a selection of 100 issues from as far back as the 1920's til 2019, gave his observant take on the development of photographers and editors & chronicled how photography develops in the specific landscape of fashion magazines in the 20th century.
I'll post scans tomorrow.
