The September Issues

I love September Issues as much as I love September weather. I've been on a hunt to find the perfect vintage bookstores in Chicago, complete with a well curated selection of international and indie magazines and limited editions of art and design books...you know, something similar to St. Mark's Bookshop, Strand or McNally Jackson. Unfortunately, it looks like they don't exist. So, after a few failed attempts of searching, I gave in and headed to Barnes & Noble where the selection of indie and international magazines is limited - most notably missing were Corduroy and the international issues of Bazaar. Now all Chicago needs is an independent bookstore to carry these missing links and some good old fashion New York sample sales!
