Adivinha quem voltou??

Life is back!

Agora só me falta arranjar uma maneira de a comprar aqui em Portugal :(



The photographic journal Life returns to US news-stands Friday with its backers hoping to restore its former glory. The photo journal disappeared from news-stands in 1972 and a short-lived revival in 2000 failed to match its heyday circulation which spanned from the 1930s to the 1960s.

However, a fresh bid to revive Life will see it hit news-stands as a supplement with over 70 newspapers around the U.S. Initial circulation is pegged at 12 million in its classic format, with the same red and white Life logo. Screen godess Monroe will not grace the cover on Friday, but the actress Sarah Jessica Parker, star of the popular television series "Sex and the City."

Informative and entertaining, humourous and serious, the original Life magazine employed some of the world's most renowned photographers whose pictures marked an era. Robert Capa snapped the Allied D-Day landings on the beaches at Normandy. Life's 1930s photos of immigrants are reputed to have inspired John Steinbeck's novel "The Grapes of Wrath".
