 Magazine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Magazines are typically published weekly, biweekly, monthly, bimonthly or quarterly, with a date on the cover that is later than the date it is actually published.
In practice, magazines are a subset of periodicals, distinct from those periodicals produced by scientific, artistic, academic or special interest publishers which are subscription-only, more expensive, narrowly limited in circulation, and often have little or no advertising.
A subset of the consumer magazine is the customer magazine, a publication similar in format and style to a consumer magazine but issued by an organisation such as a club, a retailer or an airline to communicate with its customers.

 Amazon.com: National Geographic [with $5 Bonus]: Magazines   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
National Geographic has a knack for combining the timely with the timeless to make each issue interesting from a current events perspective (recent articles on the Golan Heights and touring London show this) as well as being worthy of retaining for future reference by combining history and other details.
The National Geographic Society was founded in 1888 as a nonprofit scientific and educational organization, and has in that time supported more than 6500 explorations and research projects.
National Geographic covers the entire spectrum of science (physics, biology, chemistry, anatomy, medicine, anthropology, archaeology, geography, geology, climatology, ecology, psychology, sociology) and the articles are written in a style that makes them much more accessible to the general public.

 The Journal of Irreproducible Results
The magazine has been published for over 141 years continuously, and countless millions if not billions of copies have been innocently yet relentlessly accumulating in basements, attics, garages, public and private institutions of learning, the Library of Congress, Smithsonian Institution, Good Will, and Salvation Army stores, and heaven knows where else.
An attack on National Geographic magazine is an attack on a venerated American tradition, one as American as apple pie, Watergate, Pogo, and pizza.
Distribution of the magazine is restricted to the conterminous 48 United States (with no offense intended to Hawaii, Alaska, or any country; Hawaii and Alaska were excluded on the basis of relatively small area and small population, respectively).

Unlike other travel magazines, this one provides a lot of useful information while holding advertising to a minimum and not interlarding promos throughout the articles (Rick Steves, are you listening?).
National Geographic Traveler brings content rich information about the locations covered, the culture of the people, places to stay for many budgets, along with breathtaking photography that makes me want to leap right into the pages.
National Geographic also has excellent travel packages (I prefer land, no cruises for me) to destinations rich in archeology, history, ancient culture, as well as newer destinations with respect to where to stay.

While many libraries have been able to find and store paper archives of past issues of the National Geographic magazine, mostly from donations from their customers, unfortunately keeping up with ALL the many past maps from the 100+ years of the magazine is not as successful.

 Land Rover FAQ - Vehicle Identification - Dormobiles - Magazines
My wife and I were looking through old National Geographic magazines in the Davis branch of the Yolo county library when we found a Land-Rover Dormobile!
I tried to be polite and ask The National Geographic Society for permission to reproduce the photo on page 553.
Interesting to me about the exterior view of the Dormie in the ad is the lack of a name plate on the wing, the lack of steps on the side and the bizarre orientation of the cover plate in front of the breakfast (grill).
