Aside from being an antique-aholic, I’m completely obsessed with magazines, so this phenomenal magazine rack speaks a few loves. How wonderful this would look next to my sofa, loaded down with Aperture, Monocle, Gastronomica, National Geographic, Wallpaper, and whatever else made it into my arms this week at the bookstore. I can’t say this really says, “1940s” to me, but I suppose on a close inspection it seems to be more reproduction quality than an original. That’s fine with me, I’m not allergic to reproductions provided I know what I’m getting into upfront. For anyone else looking for their magazine fix, may I suggest you start reading MagCulture? It’s a brilliant take on the state of printed design and independent magazines. Has anyone out there any favorite magazines I need to pick up on my next run?
