The Atlantic, Harper's and Scientific American have been around since the early 19th century.
Saturday Review went into four different issues at once in the 70s.
Have read The New Yorker for nearly 4 decades. The articles are shorter than they used to be. I read the cartoons and later started reading the articles. I don't read the poetry or fiction.

Art in America. I don't understand the art but I enjoy reading about it. There are also commentary articles about things like the new Alice Walton funded museum in Bentonville, Arkansas, and the trend of giant huge art and exhibitions opening in multiple locations.

Parabola is a quarterly. each issue has a different them and there are articles about the topic from all the major religions.

Hinduism Today is published in Hawaii. It is very colorful and interesting.

I liked WIGWAG when it was around in the late 1980s. It was a literary mag.

I have a complete set of the issues of FLAIR from 1950-1951. It was really ahead of it's time with graphics, cut out pages and things.

I also have several issues of a hardback magazine called AUDIENCE. I think it was put out by the same guy that published EROS.
