** LOOK was a bi-weekly, general-interest magazine published in Des Moines, Iowa, from 1937 to 1971, with more of an emphasis on photographs than articles. A large-size magazine of 11 by 14 inches, it was generally considered the also-ran to Life magazine, which began publication months earlier and ended in 1972. When the first issue went on sale in early 1937, it sold 705,000 copies. Circulation peaked at 7.75 million in 1969. Beginning in 1963, Norman Rockwell, after closing his career with the Saturday Evening Post, began making illustrations for Look and the magazine was also known for helping launch the career of film director Stanley Kubrick, who was a staff photographer. The Look Magazine Photograph Collection was donated to the Library of Congress and contains approximately five million items.
