As those in the magazine business know, magazines come and go, and folding is quite commonplace. Yesterday, I found out about one recent closure at my new company: Death Row. Yes, a magazine for people on death row. It kept mugshots of all those (a spread, if you will, of these images) and told their stories.
I don't know exactly what happened to it, but I have my theories. Yes, it was a captive audience, but getting advertisers probably wasn't the easiest. (These folk probably didn't have a large disposable income) And, well, keeping loyal subcribers for many years didn't happen. Especially in Texas.
