LIFE Magazine: 50th Anniversary Special Anniversary Issue Collector's Edition
This item is a vintage "LIFE" magazine, identified as a "SPECIAL ANNIVERSARY ISSUE" and a "COLLECTOR'S EDITION." The cover prominently features the LIFE logo in white against a red background at the top, with a large red number "50" beneath it, and the text "YEARS" in white. Surrounding these elements is a collage of iconic black and white and color photographs representing significant people and events over a 50-year span, including Muhammad Ali, the Statue of Liberty, John F. Kennedy and Jacqueline Kennedy, the moon landing, Marilyn Monroe, Winston Churchill, and possibly a wedding scene and other notable figures. The cover has a sepia-toned or aged appearance in the background collage. The dimensions appear to be standard magazine size. The condition appears to be good with minimal visible wear or damage, though the image quality does not allow for a close examination of the edges or spine for minor abrasions or tears. The magazine features a barcode and the price of $4.95 printed on the bottom right. The overall aesthetic of the cover suggests a retrospective on a significant period of history as covered by the magazine.
