Last days of Gourmet magazine

Martha picked up a copy of the final edition of Gourmet at the bookstore recently; we're still agog that there's not enough room on the still-crowded magazines shelves (which groan still with specialty magazines on food and such) for a grand old dame like Gourmet. Maybe Condé Nast will revive the title in a future time, like Vanity Fair.

In the meantime, I came across this gallery of photos called Last Days of Gourmet, photographed by associate art director Kevin DeMaria. It really puts a human face, lots of them, actually, on the closure.
