Unlike the back issues of The Classic, the articles in Through a Glass, Darkly, won’t be made available as free downloads and won’t be published elsewhere.
The articles in the supplement look back at the history of the photography market and include many previously unpublished photographs. There’s another reason to buy the boxset. The Classic is a free magazine but it’s not free to produce, print and ship. Despite advertising, it’s nowhere close to breaking even. The boxset is a way to recoup some of the now considerable costs that have been incurred. Your support would be appreciated.
