Mental Floss rounded up the very first issues of 19 magazines, and the range in cover design is great (New York’s inaugural issue in 1968 and LIFE’s in 1936 show particular artistic durability). Also, here’s a really wonderful set of photos of the hot, brassy citizens of Orchard Beach, or the Bronx Riviera, up at Agonistica courtesy of photographer Wayne Lawrence.
