Collier’s – November 1, 1952

Description: This is the November 1, 1952, issue of Collier’s magazine. The issue was on newsstands and in homes just prior to the 1952 elections. The cover articles include “Ike or Adlai?” – the presidential candidates and “Human Guinea Pigs.” There are other articles, short stories, features, color photos/illustrations and vintage advertisements. The magazine contains 76 pages and measures approximately 10.5 x 13.5 inches.Collier's was founded in 1888 by Peter Fenelon Collier. It was initially launched as Collier's Once a Week, then changed in 1895 to Collier's Weekly: An Illustrated Journal and finally shortened in 1905 to simply Collier's. The magazine ceased publication with the issue dated for the week ending January 4, 1957. As a result of Peter Collier's pioneering investigative journalism, Collier's established a reputation as a proponent of social reform. When attempts by various companies to sue Collier ended in failure, other magazines became involved in what Theodore Roosevelt described as "muckraking journalism." The magazine was sold in 1919 to the Crowell Publishing Company, which in 1939 was renamed as Crowell-Collier Publishing Company. Collier's had a circulation of 2.8 million in 1946, but the magazine began to lose readers during the post-World War II years. Collier's changed from a weekly to a biweekly in August 1953. The magazine ceased publication with the issue for the week ending January 4, 1957. Princess Grace of Monaco was featured on the cover, pregnant with her first child Caroline.
