Andrew Everard said:I guess that's so, but when I worked on camera magazines the market supported two weeklies, each of which was selling getting on for 100,000 copies, IIRC. One bought the other, and the two titles merged, and now the one remaining weekly sells under 20,000.
Yep, I used to buy it almost every week (mid to late 1990s) when I was learning photography. The best ones were the issues that introduced me to photograpers I had never known about before. (Fay Godwin and Edward Chambre Hardman were two stand-outs.)
There was an excellent issue that featured a young woman photographer's photo-essay on the (then) few remaining Italian cafes ('Bracchi') in the Welsh valleys. (All gone now.)
I wish I had kept that one.
