Illustration was part of the original magazine’s identity. The surviving online trail includes dated Gallery pages and artists’ own accounts of appearing in the magazine. These references offer different ways to begin exploring its visual history.
James Gurney’s February 2008 post discusses the April issue. Jonathan Strahan’s March 2005 post links to a June Gallery page under the title “Romancing the Book.” Galactic Central’s February 2005 listings also preserve an April Gallery address.
An artist’s retrospective, a publication listing and a column are different kinds of evidence. Use each for what it actually supplies: an artist’s account, an issue reference, or a pointer to a missing article. Our dated archive entries keep these connections separate.
