In 2012, Poetry magazine will celebrate one hundred years of continuous publication. There are older magazines, to be sure, but I've been looking around to see which are turning the big 100 - and one is... Boy's Life!
Thanks to Steven Lomazow's amazing blog, Magazine History, I learned not only of BL's birthday, but the fascinating fact that one of its founders, Daniel Carter Beard, was also apparently behind another very different magazine, Anti-Trust: Champion of the People. Their motto: "Fearless of Any. Honest with All."
There still is an Antitrust Magazine, published by the American Bar Association; no relation, it seems. And I'm not sure what their motto is, but the ABA's is: "Defending Liberty. Pursuing Justice."

With the economy collapsed, could there be any better time for some resurrected version of a real Antitrust Magazine?
But then it would probably be bought up by a media corporation....
