1969 LIFE - August 8 - On the Moon. Iconic photographs of the Apollo Moon landing by Neil Armstrong and Ed Aldrin. An iconic issue!

This is a genuine original magazine--NOT a reproduction or reprint. Over 140 pages of historical events, interviews, and iconic photographs including fantastic period advertising. In fact, the advertising alone is often worth the price. 

Life was an American magazine published weekly from 1883 to 1972, as an intermittent "special" until 1978, and as a monthly from 1978 until 2000. During its golden age from 1936 to 1972, Life was a wide-ranging weekly general-interest magazine known for the quality of its photography.

Life was independently published for its first 53 years until 1936 as a general-interest and light entertainment magazine, heavy on illustrations, jokes, and social commentary. It featured some of the greatest writers, editors, illustrators and cartoonists of its time. In 1936, Time publisher Henry Luce bought Life, only wanting its title: he greatly re-made the publication. Life became the first all-photographic American news magazine, and it dominated the market for several decades. The magazine sold more than 13.5 million copies a week at one point. The magazine's role in the history of photojournalism is considered its most important contribution to publishing.

After 2000, Time Inc. continued to use the Life brand for special and commemorative issues. Life returned to regularly scheduled issues when it became a weekly newspaper supplement from 2004 to 2007.
