50 Magazine Covers From 20 Years Ago from Buzzfeed.

TV, music, movies and current affairs all wrapped up in a magazine cover, its like a time capsule. 8)

Its amazing to look at the people who influenced the times then, and where they are now...

very fascinating!!!

it's interesting how some of the covers look very dated, while others don't really look that dated at all. you could tell by 1991 big hair, at least among the celebrities, was dying out, and the hairstyles were in some cases, actually more similar to the ones in 2011 than to the ones in 1987!  :o

Number 3 is a classic


Look at Neil Patrick Harris on number 14!

There are hardly any "humanist sans" fonts on the covers; the san-serif fonts are more consistantly blocky back then. Also, NO INTERNET URL'S!

Lol. I was born in 1991. Like Youngerderek said I find it fascinating how some of the covers still look 80s, while others look 90s. 1991 was a very transitional year.

This is from 1989, but in "the same era" and this photo shows how around 50 magazine covers looked together at a newstand:
