#5: George Story
At its peak, Life Magazine had a circulation of over 13 million copies, which is a whole lot of paper. And get this—the magazine was so popular that it sold out in less than two hours when it first hit newsstands in 1936. Can you imagine waiting hours to get your hands on it?

But wait, there’s more – in its heyday, Life published over 1,800 issues and featured some of the most iconic photos of the 20th century. So basically, Life Magazine was like the OG social media. Still, you get stunning black-and-white photos of historical moments instead of scrolling through endless cat videos!
