Hobbies Magazine
Lightner Publishing Corp.

At 1006 Michigan Avenue, in downtown
Chicago, the old Hobbies Magazine Building still retains echoes from the past.
Three advertisements on the side of the building (and more on the back of the
building) remind us of bygone days when numismatic pursuits still inspired
magazine rather than webpages and publishers highlighted their contributions. Likewise,
the ideas of corsets is not something that most of us consider as part of
modern wardrobes; however, it is the case that specialties shops are more
inclined to carry such garments today. After a quick search of the internet, I
found that Gossard
Lingerie, founded in 1901, continues in business today…at least on the
internet, if not in downtown Chicago.
