In which G.M. Norton is handed the keys to the In Retrospect kingdom.
Rather exciting news today, chumrades. Much to my delight, I am now an editor at a printed publication of particular note in the vintage world. I refer specifically to that renowned modern magazine for old fashioned people: In Retrospect.
For those who read and digest every tiny morsel of information that I impart, I have been a contributor for In Retrospect since it’s humble beginnings as a digital-only magazine. At the beginning of 2015, co-founder Becca asked if I would assume her position of Copy Editor while she concentrated on the momental task of having a baby.
As an aspiring gentleman, I willingly stepped into the breach, along with a couple of other contributors that showed extra willing. The results of our handiwork are there for you to see and read in issue 2.
After completing a successful audition process (whoever knew?), I was asked to permanently join the editor ranks by Mat Keller, Editor-in-Chief. Joining the mix is vintage model and historian, Ava Aviación (pictured below at the magazine launch party).
Giving myself the title of Editor-at-Large/Tea Boy, I’m ready to run amok. Oh crumbs, what have Mat, Becca and Ava let themselves in for?
Issue 2 is out now and oozing with old-fashioned goodness. Why don’t you take a look at the rather spiffing In Retrospect website and see if it can tempt you enough to buy a copy?
Working with my new partners-in-crime, I now busy plotting and scheming for the next printed edition, with issue 3 planned for a big summer splash. Big things are afoot.
Hold onto your Panama!
