Is that a loaded question?

Actually the only magazine I get are ATOMIC, National Geographic and Newsweek. The first two are for the "articles only" of course  8O                   

                     National Geographic! well.. and Atomic of course.  I do despise all of the printed matter dedicated to celebrities and all of the new fashions and fads.  :roll:

                     Time                   

                     The New Yorker; Atomic; Vogue                   

                     ATOMIC (now that I know it exists...picked up my first issue, last week, in Indy), Street Rodder, Rods & Customs, Muscle Mustangs & Fast Fords, MAD

Although no longer published, I was also a big fan of CARtoons.  8)

                     Ah, yes!  CARtoons!  I discovered that one in a friend's garage in San Francisco.  WOW, what a load of culture.  I was upset when I found out that it was no longer around.

I've got a friend in my car club that looks JUST LIKE Pappy.  Dead ringer, big nose, beard and all.  Even dresses like him sometimes...and he's got no idea who Pappy is.  I rib him about it every chance I get.

I need to stop by the newsstand and pick up a copy of Atomic...fer shame, here I am posting on the forum and not reading the mag!                   

                     My favorite magazines are 1940s-1950s Esquire, Downbeat, Hush-Hush and that old American standby, Playboy.
I "subscribe" to the old issues by sending  them to myself.  Its a great way to convince yourself that you're living in your favorite era...Marlowe                    

                     I usualy only read old mags--Look, Life, Seventeen, Better Homes and Gardens, Vogue--all from the 40s and 50s.  I picked up a whole pile at a rummage sale for 50 cents to a dollar each.  The guy thought I was crazy.  I also love Atomic and Continental Restyling (too bad its not published anymore).                   

Ummmmmmmmmm.......let's see:

Old Reader's Digests, before they became ad machines

Popular Mechanics........still not bad........

Time, online--you can get the retro articles!!!!

Atomic-->I came into the scene too late, missed this one, but sure looks good!

The New Yorker; Atomic; Vogue

It seems to me you&#39;re right...the articles on home caring, and all the associated, on cocktail parties, etc. definitely have been replaced.

What I love are all the "society" bits. Of course, Vogue, Town & Country and a few others still do that, but it isn&#39;t really the same. All the girls look like they haven&#39;t brushed their hair or anything...

I read the same things as Eileen, typically. I do get "Cottage Living" since they do a fair amount of retro/vintage decor in small homes, "Better Homes & Gardens" for the same reason and I confess to getting "People" because I am obsessed with Hollywood, even these days. I love the gossip, I can&#39;t help it.

Used to be <a href="http://www.juxtapoz.com/mambo/" target="_blank">Juxtapoz</a> art magazine before it started to disappear up it&#39;s own fundament. Now it seems to be too similar to the pretentious, white-space-gallery rubbish I thought it was meant to be an antidote to.

Barracuda has to be an all time favourite. Also Gearhead, Highball, Horizontal Action and Bizarre.
I&#39;ll read pretty much any vintage 50&#39;s magazine if only for the ads.

And of course I have all issues of Atomic.
