New York Magazine Marks 50th Anniversary by Partnering with Pixels for Print-on-Demand Images

SANTA MONICA, Calif., Jan. 23, 2018 -- For the past 50 years, New York Magazine’s format and style have been emulated by other publications – with none coming close to the magazine’s unique take on the city and culture at large. To commemorate half a century of iconic covers and arresting images, New York Magazine has partnered with the world’s largest online art marketplace, Pixels.com. This partnership was conceived as a way to thank New York Magazine’s millions of readers for their loyalty – and give them the opportunity to own some of the ‘visual jewels’ the magazine has created over the years.  

To celebrate its 50th anniversary, New York Magazine has partnered with Pixels, giving readers the opportunity to own the ‘visual jewels’ the magazine has created over the years. Covers can now be purchased as framed prints, canvas prints and more. Pixels’ global print-on-demand business features a unique blend of software, manufacturing and worldwide distribution, making it easy for New York Magazine readers to bring their favorite pieces into their homes.

“We were attracted to how simple Pixels made it to share our visual history with our readers,” noted David Haskell, editor for business and strategy, New York Media. “For years, we've received calls from readers asking for a way to put our covers and photographs on their walls. Now we have an easy, elegant answer.” 

Pixels is a technology and lifestyle company that helps artists, photographers and iconic brands transform their images into physical-goods businesses. Pixels is noted for its print-on-demand technology and ability to rapidly design, build and maintain a massive e-commerce storefront. Pixels serves more than 500,000 independent artists and iconic brands (including Condé Nast, PBS and National Geographic), handles millions of monthly visitors, processes more than 10,000 new image uploads each day, and manufactures and ships thousands of orders each week from 15 manufacturing facilities located all over the world.

According to Sean Broihier, CEO of Pixels, “Our unique blend of software, manufacturing and global distribution gives us a competitive edge. We’re making it easy for New York Magazine readers to bring their favorite pieces into their homes – and giving the magazine a seamless way to invite these devoted readers to join in their anniversary celebration.”

The partnership’s first offering – New York Magazine’s holiday 2017 collection – includes ten classic covers and three posters: the famous Nixon Eggplant (1973), the epic Pastrami Olympics (1973), and the overflowing Neil’s Coffee Shop (2017). Prints start at $40, and can be purchased at www.pixels.com/profiles/newyork-magazine. The magazine will be releasing new collections from its archive throughout the yearlong 50^th anniversary celebration and beyond. For more information, please visit www.pixels.com.
