Do recommend the Life special issue on Magazine photography.  It gives
some small hope that there is still a market for great, meaningful
work.  Many superb images that do tribute to photojournalism and
documentary photography and all around non-advertising photography. 
Well worth the $5, if only for the photo of Eisenstadt with his Leica.
