March 2012 Magazine Appraisal

Us Weekly Magazine - March 12, 2012 (Whitney Houston Cover)

This item is a copy of Us Weekly magazine. The cover features a large portrait of Whitney Houston with the headline "WHITNEY'S SAD FINAL DAYS". Beneath the main headline are bullet points describing the contents of the feature article: "Drug binges, a booze-fueled fight, her last hours at the hotel", "Partying with her daughter", and "'Don't remember me like this' - her haunting plea days before". A smaller inset image shows Bobbi Kristina Brown with the headline "BOBBI KRISTINA ON SUICIDE WATCH". The left side of the cover features smaller headlines and images, including "KIM & REGGIE! Her Family Disapproves", "PHOTO ALBUM Beyonce's Baby Girl!", and "Grammy Awards BEST & WORST DRESSED STARS". The magazine is printed on standard glossy paper and appears to be in good condition with no major tears or creases visible. The colors are vibrant and the text is clear and legible. There are no discernible manufacturing marks or stamps on the cover other than the magazine title and issue information (March 12, 2012, barcode, etc.). The style period is contemporary, reflecting early 2012. The item's quality is consistent with typical mass-market celebrity magazines.
