If you don't mind, is it nicely laid out, typeset, nice paper, presented nicely on arrival etc.? i.e. is it a good gift, or is it 'just' a good magazine?

I've thought about 'Lapham's Quarterly' before, it's just international shipping enough to put me off.

The design is great.

Paper is good; thick and matte. Presentation is great, TONS of infographics, interesting design. It's a visual delight.

(Whether it's a good gift, hugely depends on the recipient; it's not quite in the "Coffee table artsy book" range :)

Lapham's Quarterly is great stuff. They had a 50% sale a couple of months ago and I bought...a lot of their back issues.

Lapham’s Quarterly is truly a gem. I am a longtime subscriber and have the whole catalog, which I consider to be one of my prized collections.
