The Paris Metro 40th Anniversary Issue: The Book About Paris Yesterday
Description:
The Paris Metro was a fortnightly, English-language magazine in France that published sixty-four issues between June 1976 and December 1978. Although time can diminish or exaggerate the past, there seems to be agreement that there was something special and unique about The Paris Metro – and the creative people associated with it. Published roughly in chronological order, these fifty anecdotes, memoirs, reflections and vignettes written in 2016 by former staff members, freelancers and readers of The Paris Metro provide a glimpse of the magazine's then-magical presence and now-mythical stature. The compilation provides some insight into the magazine’s allure and includes scores of illustrations and extracts plucked from past issues. And photo spreads by two of the best photographers in Paris during the 1970s.
