Physical Culture (Sandow Magazine)
''Sandow's Magazine of Physical Culture'', established by Eugen Sandow in 1898, has been regarded as the first bodybuilding magazine. Founded in July 1898 under the name ''Physical Culture'', the magazine was renamed ''Sandow's Magazine of Physical Culture'' in April 1899. Howard Spicer was editor. Contributors included the music-hall artist Dan Leno, and several young writers who would subsequently achieve fame: P. G. Wodehouse, H. H. Munro and George Douglas Brown. It closed, due to a decline in interest, in June 1907.Article on Sandow by Mark Pottle. References
