Speaking of magazines…
If you have yet to take a gander at Antenna Magazine, rush out and pick one up, or head to their website and check it out.
Antenna is the first mainstream magazine to target individuals who are on a constant quest for the newest and coolest products on the horizon. And it does so without using celebrities, models, concept shoots, service stories and whatever else we deem superfluous to our mission: to become a guidebook, allowing readers to navigate the most extensive collection of products ever compiled in a single publication, while championing the people who create, sell and collect them—all in one comprehensive, artful, elegant and innovative format. Featuring everything from dress shirts and cellphones to jeans and graphic T’s, Antenna is considered to be a non-disposable magazine in a disposable world. And you cannot ask for more than that.
The layout is clean, the pages are plenty (180+), the products are dope, and the magazine is organized from A-Z, each letter getting it’s own page or spread. So a regular issue will cover any topic (and they helpfully display pictures and prices) from “B” for boxing gloves, “L” for lighters,”O” for obese, “P” for puffy coats, etc. The A-Z’s change with each issue, as do the article inserts. Even if you don’t purchase anything featured in the magazine it’s eye candy and visual pleasing, and of course the slick magazine stock doesn’t hurt.
