The Virtual Newsstand: 1925

I learned about this project on the Fictionmags list. There are some nice cover photos, but I like the shots of the real newsstands best. Check it out.

Wonderful but depressing. All those lovely magazines and covers gone. Great research site though. See wonderful. That's what I'm taking away.

That Omaha newsstand photo is a blurry partial scan of a great photo I've been meaning to scan in for years for FictionMags most obviously available in Time-Life's THIS FABULOUS CENTURY coffee-table book series, the 1930-1940 volume. That's where, as a child, I first laid eyes upon the images, at least, of pulps.

I suppose I good get to that even Real Sooner Now.

Or, even I could get to that.
