AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This movie magazine is a copy of the French periodical "Impact", number 68, as seen on the cover. The front page features a striking visual of Jan Kounen's film "Dobermann", with a color photograph of the main character, weapon in hand, in close-up. The main title in catchy red letters "DOBERMANN – Jan Kounen's trashy and feisty thriller" occupies the lower part of the cover, characteristic of 1990s movie magazine layouts.

At the top of the cover, a yellow banner announces: "THE LOST WORLD: Steven Spielberg reopens Jurassic Park!", indicating the presence of a feature or article on this film. On the left, two illustrated boxes: one dedicated to Val Kilmer ("a SAINT without a halo"), the other to Sandra Bullock for the film "Speed 2" ("trapped at sea"). The portraits of these actors are inserted in oval medallions, typical of specialized magazines of that era.

The "IMPACT" logo takes up a large space at the top, with a stylized target in the background, and number 68 is clearly visible in white on a black background. The dynamic layout and vibrant colors (red, yellow, black) reflect the desire to immediately capture the attention of action and blockbuster movie fans, consistent with the magazine's editorial line.

The cover also displays the price in francs and other Francophone currencies, which places the publication before the widespread adoption of the euro, reinforcing its attribution to the second half of the 1990s. The spine and binding are not visible in this image, only the front cover is shown.

The surface of the cover appears smooth and glossy, with no major visible defects in the photo. The visible corners appear sharp, without significant snags or creases. No graffiti, labels, or handwritten marks are visible on the displayed side.

Condition

Used magazine, sold as is. The visible cover is in very good apparent condition, with no notable signs of wear on the displayed side.

Did you know? The magazine "Impact" was a reference in specialized cinema press in France in the 80s and 90s, famous for its features on international action films, thrillers and blockbusters. Jan Kounen's film "Dobermann" (1997), highlighted on this cover, has become cult for its radical visual style and its extreme representation of the anti-hero in French cinema.
