NEW BEDFORD – Imagine a time when stories of New Bedford and surrounding towns on the Southcoast were told not in newsprint, but in glossy magazine covers and pages. You’d find yourself going back 40 years when New Bedford Magazine launched its premiere issue.
New Bedford Magazine launches in 1981
A closeup of the New Bedford Whaling Museum s domed cupola on the cover announced the very first issue of New Bedford Magazine in spring 1981. This year marks the 40th anniversary of the magazine s founding.
Over the several years the magazine was in publication, the covers presented familiar local scenes like seagulls, fishing boats, harsh winter landscapes, art work, and landmarks like the New Bedford working waterfront or Battleship Cove in Fall River.
