Reminisce Print Magazine

REMINISCE is a wonderful magazine. I re-live my childhood and chuckle at some of the stories. I enjoy passing these on to shut-ins, friends and I also leave them in the doctors office when I have my appointments. I was delighted to see that the senior center has them for reading as well. With all our life's changes from Model T Fords to computers, we need a magazine like this. Its enjoyable reading. REMINISCE has you stopping the merry-go-round of our lives, and take time to relax, laugh, enjoy and stories about men and women in the armed forces. Our prayers and respect to this day go out to the folks in the Armed Forces and their families. This magazine gives young people an insight that way back then, when things were tough, we all survived by doing whatever had to be done. A young friend asked me what a party-line was when talking about phones. I was able to explain what it was. He being in his early 20's, looked it up on his phone. He couldn't fathom how we could talk to one another. Thank you REMINISCE for giving us memories and stories of how it was. And we all managed to survive because we were all in the same boat. Just trying to make a living and keep the roof over our heads for our families. PLEASANT, STRESS-FREE READING THAT IS ENJOYABLE. PEACE TO ALL Margaret Bell-Berman

This whole magazine is written by and pictures submitted by readers. Very little advertisement. It's like looking through your old photo album with stories attached. It was kind of a joke (I'm 68 now) but through out my life I could never buy her a gift she liked until I ran into this magazine. The price is right too. It's geared towards pretty much any decade of people who would still be around this planet. From the late 1920's through probably the 1970's maybe the 80's but sticks alot through the 30's 40's 50's 60's are the main groups. They pick topics that we all lived through too and dedicate a magazine towards it. Good reicpes and news for us ""oldsters" too. Just a bunch of fun reading... Another one is called "closer". I worked in a grocery store and used to steer people looking for a gift for Mom towards both of those magazines. I became "the chosen one" in my mothers eyes for once LOL

REMINISCE is a step back in time not only for those old enough to remember and appreciate but will also provide a real history lesson for those who are too young to have had the first hand experience of the "good old days" when you could have fun that didn't cost a kings ransom and family vacations were an adventure .

I mean, I'm not a baby by any means, but I'm in my late thirties. It's an "old soul" magazine, and I've always had one. It has really cool stories that people relate regarding to their families and growing up. The feature about a different celebrity each issue is pretty fun, as is the section where they choose a year and showcase different words or phrases that originated in that year. I've always been a sucker for old photos- even if they're people I don't even know, so that's another perk of this magazine. It's fun to read and it is definitely aptly named!

I really love this wonderful magazine! I discovered it several years ago, probably from rummaging through items at a thrift store. I am in my mid-40’s, and have always considered myself an “old soul.” I am old fashioned in just about every aspect of my life. I love reading the feel-good stories of yesteryear. People in general just seemed more decent and moral back in the day. Yes, there were still wars, hate, suffering of every kind, etc., but the general population of human-kind seemed to be more loving and caring toward their fellow man. Thank you for creating a magazine for people like myself who appreciate reading interesting stories about the days of old.

There was a sale so I decided to purchase this subscription, as I like old photos and historical items. I also love using vintage images for mixed media art, so this is good source material for my projects. Overall it's a fun magazine to go through, and I've shown it to my mom and dad who also get a kick out of it. If you are a baby boomer or have parents/grandparents who are boomers, that is the primary target audience. Where it lacks for me is that there is soooo much advertising, like the kind you get in the mail in that one big envelope for As Seen On TV-type items. I may be overstating but it feels like half the real estate in the magazine is for ads. I only paid $5 for the entire subscription, so it's not a huge deal, but if I can't renew at $5 for the next year, I won't bother with it.

Wonderful selection of stories - while visiting my Dad in his nursing home, promoted nice conversations and memories, sparking joy faith him. Since he had dementia, it really helped give him enjoyable moments of recall. Especially helpful as his focus had gotten shorter & he couldn’t often initiate conversation - this really helped on his good days.

I purchased this subscription for my mother who was in assisted living. I never read it in the years it came to my house. After she passed away, I finally looked at an issue. I regret never reading this before. I presumed it had to do with early times mostly 40s and 50s, and I was completely wrong. One article had events that happened in 1980, and it was not only fascinating, but brought back many memories. The articles are evenly divided up in decades and the photos really make you REMINISCE about the past no mater what your age is. It’s very well written with excellent articles.
