Chicago-based commercial printer RR Donnelley announced today that it has a multiyear agreement with Time Inc. to print a weekly newspaper edition of LIFE magazine. Time plans to insert LIFE into 50 newspapers each Friday, giving it a circulation of 12 million.
Time Inc. originally launched LIFE magazine in 1936 and RR Donnelley was its printer then too. Today, RR Donnelley prints Time, Sports Illustrated and People magazines for Time Inc. so printing LIFE seems like a logical decision.
Chicagoist is excited because LIFE's photos are so best. They're classics. We're trying to remember.. when did LIFE stop printing? In the late 90s?
