I ask every Madonna fan and collector the same to add to my knowledge of Madonna items. Please feel free to review my posts and inform others of your own collections.Madonna Collectorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07038809442025807043noreply@blogger.comBlogger31100tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5399224865252881798.post-22294856753611292282010-03-15T00:45:00.000-07:002010-03-15T03:19:27.441-07:00<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_CvVaxtuiVoQ/S53n6yJlNPI/AAAAAAAAAAc/Q60Xlh_V1z8/s1600-h/IMG_1958-2.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5448766121268557042" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_CvVaxtuiVoQ/S53n6yJlNPI/AAAAAAAAAAc/Q60Xlh_V1z8/s320/IMG_1958-2.jpg" style="cursor: hand; cursor: pointer; float: left; height: 320px; margin: 0 10px 10px 0; width: 240px;" /></a><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_CvVaxtuiVoQ/S53n0vbVq_I/AAAAAAAAAAU/7dHrDrSa3as/s1600-h/IMG_1962-1.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5448766017458514930" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_CvVaxtuiVoQ/S53n0vbVq_I/AAAAAAAAAAU/7dHrDrSa3as/s320/IMG_1962-1.jpg" style="cursor: hand; cursor: pointer; float: left; height: 320px; margin: 0 10px 10px 0; width: 251px;" /></a><br />Madonna's 1st Covers...<br />Although most would agree that M's first cover was on ISLAND magazine (October, 1983), there is some evidence that M's first inclusion/appearance in a publication was in the DANCE MUSIC REPORT (DMR), a music-industry publication in New York City, which appeared in February 1983. <br />There is def. a second cover, which appeared on the December 10th , 1983 issue of BILLBOARD magazine. This is M's first "back cover" of a magazine [and Yes, if you are Madonna collecting even that counts] (smile).<br /><br />The December 10, 1983 issue of BILLBOARD magazine featured Barbra Streisand on the front cover and a full-page ad with MADONNA on the BACK cover of the magazine! This is the only other &nbsp;mag. cover M appears on in 1983. Fun fact and always a fun item to add to any collection.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5399224865252881798-2229485675361129228?l=madonnacolllector.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Madonna Collectorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07038809442025807043noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5399224865252881798.post-7840233999537348522010-03-15T00:01:00.001-07:002010-03-15T00:01:28.993-07:00<p style="visibility:visible;"><object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://widget-15.slide.com/widgets/slideticker.swf" height="320" width="426" style="width:426px;height:320px"><param name="movie" value="http://widget-15.slide.com/widgets/slideticker.swf" /><param name="quality" value="high" /><param name="scale" value="noscale" /><param name="salign" value="l" /><param name="wmode" value="transparent"/> <param name="flashvars" value="cy=ms&il=1&channel=2594073385397049877&site=widget-15.slide.com"/></object><p style="white-space:nowrap"><a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=ms&at=un&id=2594073385397049877&map=1" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-15.slide.com/p1/2594073385397049877/ms_t000_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide1.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a> <a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=ms&at=un&id=2594073385397049877&map=2" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-15.slide.com/p2/2594073385397049877/ms_t000_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide2.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a> <a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=ms&at=un&id=2594073385397049877&map=E" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-15.slide.com/m/2594073385397049877/ms_t000_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide9_1.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a></p></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5399224865252881798-784023399953734852?l=madonnacolllector.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Madonna Collectorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07038809442025807043noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5399224865252881798.post-71457702345643286352010-03-14T23:12:00.000-07:002010-03-14T23:18:09.133-07:00Welcome to yet another Blog honoring her Madjesty!
