History and profile
[edit | edit source]Bildjournalen was established in 1954.[1][2] The magazine was modeled on Seventeen and Hit Parader magazines.[3] It was part of and published by Åhlén & Åkerlund,[4] with its headquarters in Malmö.[5] A movie magazine, Filmjournalen, merged with it.[6][7]
The magazine covered all the topics, which young people were interested in, such as music, movies, beauty tips, fashion, novels, news about society and current events.[2][8] These articles were accompanied by large photographs.[8] The magazine offered several flexi discs.[9][10] The contributors were the leading Swedish journalists and photographers: Cecilia Hagen, Staffan Heimerson, Anja Notini, Gunilla Pontén, Anders Engman and Bengt H Malmqvist.[2] Bertil Torekull was one of the editors-in-chief of the magazine, who was also the editor-in-chief of another magazine Veckorevyn.[11]
In 1959, Bildjournalen had a circulation of 230,000 copies.[12] The magazine ceased publication in 1969.[2][12] In 2011 a book about Bildjournalen was published by Premium Publishing.[13]
