Getting the chance to go through some of the mags I've collected over the years is always a good thing, it also seems to justify (to others) the reason for me hoarding them for so long in the first place. Old issues of surfing, skate, snowboarding and music magazines are boxed up in so many places I cant keep count, fortunately some of my faves are in the bookshelf at home. So the other day while Kim was in a cooking frenzy, I chilled with a few old issues of Beach Culture and Raygun. Both mags are from the early to mid 90's with Beach Culture preceding Raygun. Unfortunately Beach Culture only lasted 6 issues. But after that David Carson, the art director, set up Raygun which ran for a fair few years. Below I've posted two of my favorite covers, I honestly think that you could put both these covers on a magazine now and they wouldn't look dated at all.
