Volume 58 Legacy: Editorial
May 18, 2021
How to hand over the baton from one editor-in-chief to the next? Is there a script, a protocol, a convention? Your new man, Stephan Petermann and I decided to give it some time; to jointly walk the entire distance of one issue. Great idea, but what about the subject? It should combine the briefing and debriefing so we agreed on ‘the legacy’. To avoid simplistic boasting or navel-gazing we decided to dive into Volume’s pre-history, starting in 1929 and stopping where Volume started.
So, here you have it, our harvest from 75 years of magazine making. And in our search for motives and motivations, we found some pearls along the way.
