HOLIDAY-THEMED VINTAGE MAGAZINE COVERS

Allured by the scent of freshly baked cinnamon-apple cake coming from the bakery down the street, by the blinking Christmas ornaments bringing color and joy to the stone-paved boulevards otherwise lost in dark shades of grey as the evening sky fades away, by the enormous Christmas tree reigning over the crowds in the Christmas Market down-town, a feeling of nostalgia strikes my mind, taking me back to a time when the magic of this holiday resided in toy stuffed stockings and chocolate candy bars. The memories of my childhood holidays still fresh in my head, I couldn’t help wondering how people celebrated Christmas a few decades earlier, knowing none of the privileges of today, still enjoying the easiness of those times…Searching for inspiration in the world of vintage photography, I found and gathered together a few holiday-themed covers of the most popular magazines from the past decades – my favorites, down-below.
