LIFE

So its been a while since I've been on this thing, not that that matters since I'm the only one here, anywho I clicked the button for google books this morning and much to my surprise I found that they have four full issues of LIFE Magazine on display for all to view, further investigation revealed to me that google partnered with TIME-LIFE back in 08 and the full archive from 1936-1972 is available for your viewing pleasure. LIFE as you all (no one) know was an influential magazine published to showcase American life in the form of photoessays. It could be claimed that LIFE invented the photoessay. All that aside its a pretty sweet collection of yesteryear, check out the adverts in them hillarity ensues. Click Here to see the collection of full view issues of LIFE on Google Books.
