Photo of the Day

Picture of a person working a printing press with an issue of National Geographic Magazine on it

Off the Presses

This picture from the December 1960 issue shows the September 1960 issue being printed at a facility in Chicago. That year, the National Geographic Society transferred the printing process from Washington, D.C., to Chicago, bringing new depth and vividness to the photography readers knew and loved.
