Great link! I am very enamoured of this one, for some reason, and I would love to see some of the articles - "Homosexual Confession", "The Sex Lives of Twins", and the illustrated "Shanghai Prostitutes". I can't wait to visually devour every single cover on this site.

1930-1940s vintage Fortune magazine had some of the most beautifully designed covers I've ever seen. Like this one.

Great article here on the decline of design in magazine covers.

I love this stuff. I also recently found this great site with covers from over 100 magazines from the 1890s to the 1960s.
