A full facsimile reproduction of the era-defining queer magazine that documented Chicago's Black nightlife scene of the early '90s

Started in 1989 by designer and writer Robert Ford, THING magazine was the voice of Chicago's queer Black music and arts scene in the early 1990s. Ford and his editors were part of the burgeoning house music scene, which originated in Chicago's queer underground, and some of the top DJs and musicians from that time were featured in the magazine, including Frankie Knuckles and RuPaul. THING published 10 issues from 1989 to 1993, before it was cut short by Ford's death from HIV/AIDS-related causes.
