Abstract
A brief history of The Observatory Magazine is presented in the context of a review of the procedures and practices of the Editors over the last 125 years, so far as is known from the available archives. In an age of increasing emphasis on electronic communication, the future prospects for the Magazine may not be especially rosy.
