Fibban ends

Lektyr and FibAktuellt disappears. Whatever one may think about the content another two  large venerable paper magazines goes into the grave.

Fibban wanted an image that Krantz  had  on a car.

Established norm is that the photographer gets paid. It is the photographer’s livelihood.

Imagine my surprise when Fibban wondered if they could get the image for free.

Their budget had collapsed totally. This said an insider:

Time to buy a paper magazine – as a curiosities

Quote / “Men’s magazines are living the year. Next year if we’re lucky. That’s how bad it is in the  newspaper world.” / End quote

The cellulose reading  is exchanged for cellular reading

Very soon wooden magazines are for old farts only.

The pattern is repeated. Anywhere. Bilsport  plummet. Advanced plans regarding  web magazine is in the near future. Maybe it’s time to buy a paper newspaper – as curiosities from 2015

Who’s last standing?

I´m  tipping Nostalgia. They write about everything from Cuckoo Clock collectors  to greaser cars. Mainstream.

Then Peter Haventon  get to add a picture of Wheels beside his matchboxes with the text: Remember motor magazines in paper?

Reading Peters words with pleasure. He has that ironic laidback tone without being lightweight. The last word artist in the paper world.
