Magazines and the American Experience: Highlights from the Collection of Steven Lomazow,
M.D.' is the companion to the exhibition curated by Steven Lomazow, on show at the
Grolier Club. At 324 pages and lavishly illustrated with 435 color illustrations,
the catalogue takes the reader on a chronological tour of the American magazine from
1733 to the present. This is followed by an examination of specialty magazines, with
chapters on sports, literature, pulp, and entertainment, among others. The section
on magazines written by and for African Americans uncovers the legacy that begins
with David Ruggles's Mirror of History (1838) and includes [Frederick] Douglass' Monthly
(1859), the combative Messenger (1917), the Negro Digest (1942), and Essence (1970).
Introductions to each section provide valuable context, and the bibliography and essays
by experts in the genre increase this fascinating catalogue's value for collectors
and scholars. Set in Goudy Old Style and Adobe Caslon types. Design and typography
