- racer108, on 10/10/2007, -0/+28What, no full size scans?

- mindstyle1, on 10/10/2007, -0/+14the shoot the dog one is classic - reminds me of that site "save toby" where the guy claimed he'd eat a rabbit if he didn't raise a certain amount of money... maybe that's where he got the idea.
- zeddie2001, on 10/10/2007, -1/+9This is the second time that you've provided a mirror when other mirrors have failed, but you don't seem to have any ads, or even anything at the root domain!? How you making money :O
- canuq, on 10/10/2007, -2/+10I'm not making money at this point. I'm just trying to see how much traffic can be generated and perfecting my mirror.
- SuperCujo, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8Your spelling of Beatles really shows how much of a fan you were....
- ThinkBox, on 10/10/2007, -1/+7My cousin has an original print of that Afghan woman. When I visited him in california, I spent 10 minutes a day just staring at it. The print, in person, is really a thing to behold.
- aguynamedben, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6Annie Leibovitz rawks
- Firehed, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5Top 10 Lists 2.0: Now with 50% more list!
- DefaultGen, on 10/10/2007, -2/+6I can't believe it's not a top 10 list.
- dako, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4Was it just a coincidence that most covers were featured last week on a ColourLovers article =o?
- ampedasia, on 10/10/2007, -1/+5Full size would have been nice. But they are still interesting.
- asnider, on 10/10/2007, -1/+3I saw that picture for the first time at a very young age, and those eyes were burned into my mind for all time. I will never forget that image.
- spammishking, on 10/10/2007, -3/+5you look like you're getting dug up now, but really, does it matter? Do you sleep less at night thinking that the digg community doesn't like you, or maybe you're afraid that everyone thinks you are less than intelligent? Either way stop whining, it just makes you look foolish.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Original print means printed by the photographer himself. As in Steve McCurry... in a dark room, with the original film and an enlarger.
Those cost up in the tens of thousands if not more. - tennisninja38, on 10/10/2007, -1/+3they even spelled marilyn monroe's named wrong
- Davekcon, on 10/10/2007, -2/+4i heart you.
- stutimandal, on 10/10/2007, -4/+6#15 .. scarlett johansson should've been the best all the way.
- MrFisty, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2The new born baby cover of Colors as the Most Shocking Photograph? I'm not seeing the shocking part of it. Really, people need to toughen up a bit. That was you once.
- allaboutdatiki, on 10/10/2007, -3/+4I remember seeing the Oprah's Head on Ann-Margret's Body TV Guide on the newsstand, back in the day. We knew it was fake ... but hey, we Photoshoppers, even then ...
- ajchavar, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2your opinion is wrong
- Beerduck, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Let me guess, it's on 15 pages.
- heyitsgarrett, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Was it absolutely necessary for the "Top #" title images to be so freaking large?
- praveens, on 10/10/2007, -3/+4fired her agent.. hah lol!
- cwshea, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1What's wrong with rabbit? Tasty.
- Kitsune818, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2I read somewhere that they went and found her again. She's a mother now, and apparently only vaguely aware that she's somewhat famous.
- Ryosen, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1You are absolutely correct. Here is a link to how they found her: http://tinyurl.com/4tja (TinyURL'd link to National Geographic site, Digg truncates long links)
- markiemarke, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1which came first the colour lovers article or this, either way it felt like looking at the same article due to the repetition of featured covers!, at least the colour lovers site is nicer.
- hansk, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1operah is nasty
- superbad, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Something has to fill the space left by cover photos that are so freaking small.
- Kitsune818, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1The only one I agree with is the Afghan woman. Where is that famous picture of Janet Jackson with two hands over her boobs? Not that it's great, but it's more well known than several of those listed.
- sirdaz, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Odd, I was just talking about magazine prints yesterday after seeing the dog shooting one. Was looking for a list like this, dugg.
- shavenlunatic, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1you just lost... right then.. did you see?
- mycivicsi06, on 10/10/2007, -3/+3who the f*** cares?
- shavenlunatic, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1i've eaten loads of rabbits.. seriously.. plus i've sucked teh marrow out of their bones. I didn't get paid for it though... if he had said "pay money or I eat some beef stew" would it have had the same effect?
- goatspanka, on 10/10/2007, -3/+3Buried for being a bitch.
- bonjourmr, on 04/25/2008, -1/+1Paparazzi these days should aspire to be like Annie Leibowitz. Or get a new ***** profession, either way.
- mike818, on 10/10/2007, -2/+2I picked up a copy a few years ago at a thrift store.
- masskurec, on 03/03/2009, -0/+0nice selection
http://xptweak.net - DeskFlyer, on 10/10/2007, -3/+3Sorry, it just bugs me when people just blindly bury a comment into oblivion without even reading what's contained within it. I'll shut up now.
- vmos, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0Paint me blue and call me stupid but number 1 sucks to high heaven, regarding both content and layout. A photoshopped picture of two people on a beach smothered in gaudliy covered text?
oh yes, that's certainly the best magazine cover since 1960 and worthy of the number one spot - crossers, on 07/19/2008, -0/+0so it's top 10 list? I don't think so.

- oxyco, on 10/10/2007, -3/+1Aren't they all american magz ? if yes shouldn't it be "15 Best American Magazines Covers Since 1960" ?
- uptown, on 10/10/2007, -3/+1Best book-cover collection is available at CoverBoom
http://www.coverboom.com - dynacrylic, on 10/10/2007, -10/+5Little disappointed this one didn't make it in there: http://www.collectmad.com/madcoversite/mad336.html
- Hobbes24, on 10/10/2007, -8/+1Dugg down for having that damn picture of John and Yoko. Bitch ruined the Beetles...
- DeskFlyer, on 10/10/2007, -15/+7Um, why am I getting buried for helping the people asking for bigger photos? Do people see a link and automatically think 'OMG SPAM' or something?
