I found some Gentry magazines at the Alameda Art and Antiques faire last weekend, and they are pretty stupendous. I got issues 1, 2, and 4, and I have issue 3 on the way via USPS. The magazine was a competitor to Esquire and GQ back in the early 50's, but at a price of $2 per issue, it was probably aiming at a different clientele. Lots of feature and advertising pages have swatches or other items added in by hand; this was clearly not a cheap magazine to produce. I'll be spending some time trying to find out more about the magazine and its publisher, Reporter Publications. Click the magazine cover to see it, and other pages, closer-up.
