JUST LOOK AT WHAT I FOUND IN FRANCE....

I think you'll agree that these 50's magazines are just beautiful. I came across them in an big warehouse about an hour and a half from Lyon. I was staying with a friend who'd told be about this place packed full of possibilities. What really struck me was that everything had meant something to someone at some point. These magazines were amongst many that had been lovingly collected by a French 'maman' who'd kept them perhaps for their usefulness, but more than likely, simply because she thought they were lovely to look at.  Each one is a delight. Perhaps the passage of time makes us appreciate the design more. Are today's front covers really so stunning? I'm not so sure. What do you think?
