Distributed quarterly, The Normal Review became the first-ever literary magazine at the New Paltz Normal School in June of 1894. The 26-page publication contained news, poetry, narratives and other forms of writing from students within the school. The magazine folded in 1901 after years of journalistic service to the New Paltz community.
Description
The Normal Review catalog contains a burgundy red hard cover. The 8-by-11 book feels rough at the touch. If you caress the book with your finger, you could feel years of wear displayed as lines on the book. The book also contains gold lettering with the words “The Normal Review” on it’s binding. Below, in the same gold letters are the active years, “1894-1901” On the bottom of the binding reads, “Alumni Association, INC. State University College. New Paltz, New York. The library placed a barcode on it’s top middle corner. When you open the book you’re displayed with the first issue’s cover page, table of contents and words. All written work is in a black san serif font, while advertisements in the back are of different fonts.
