Original issues of EGO, a Ukrainian men’s lifestyle magazine from the glossy, thoroughly overconfident 2000s. Cover shoots, celebrity interviews, music, films, fashion, vodka, cigarets and expensive cars all preserved in print.
EGO captures a particular slice of Ukrainian popular culture: local personalities sharing space with international stars, aspirational fashion and whatever car you were supposed to want that month.
The pictured March and May 2009 covers alone jump between football interviews, Star Trek, music and the Bugatti Veyron. Plenty of reading material to support your claim that you bought it for the articles and not just the models.
Beyond the cover photography, these magazines offer a time capsule of 2000s editorial design, entertainment and advertising before everything became an endless scroll.
Original period copies with signs of reading and storage. Cover, edge and spine wear may be present; condition varies between issues.
Price is for one magazine. Issue dates and contents vary.
