Magazine


 * For magazines dealing with the Star Trek franchise, see magazines; see also comics.

A magazine is a periodical containing a collection of articles, stories or other written material, often accompanied by photographs.

On 20th and 21st century Earth, they were common sights in book stores and also sold on streets.

In 1953, Benny Russell encountered a vendor in Harlem whose newsstand sold magazines and newspapers. 

The Alexandria Books store in Portage Creek, Indiana had a large set of magazines for sale. 

In the 23rd century, magazines also circulated on 892-IV, then at a stage similar to Earth's 20th century.
