Content
Populair magazines, most of which started just after WW2, sold from a bookstall, probably in Amsterdam. "Vizier" appeared from 1946 to 1960, and was continued as the well-know radio and television guide "Televizier". "Film en Theater" was a weekly for drama, music, film, radio en cabaret that had only a short existence between 1945 and probably 1947. The weekly "De Lach" (photographs, humour, reading matter) had existed before the war; it was published between 1929 and 1967. Bookstalls like these no longer exist in the Netherlands. Their role has been taken over by chains such as AKO, De Boekelier and Bruna.
