Colliers Magazine : ウィキペディア英語版
Collier's

''Collier's'' is an American magazine, founded in 1888 by Peter Fenelon Collier. It was initially launched as ''Collier's Once a Week'', then changed in 1895 to ''Collier's Weekly: An Illustrated Journal'', and finally shortened in 1942 to simply ''Collier's''. While the original magazine ceased publication with the January 4, 1957 issue, a brief attempt was made to revive the name in 2012.〔("About Us", ''Collier's'', February 2012. )〕
As a result of Peter Collier's pioneering investigative journalism, ''Collier's Weekly'' established a reputation as a proponent of social reform. When attempts by various companies to sue Collier ended in failure, other magazines became involved in what Theodore Roosevelt described as "muckraking journalism." In 2010, the ''Collier's'' trademark was purchased for $2,000 by JTE Multimedia, which published "The Special Relaunch Issue" in February 2012. After several issues, the publication once again folded.〔("Subscriptions", ''Collier's'', February 2012. )〕
==History==
Irish immigrant Peter F. Collier (1849–1909) left Ireland at age 17. Although he went to a seminary to become a priest, he instead started work as a salesman for P. J. Kenedy, publisher of books for the Roman Catholic market. When Collier wanted to boost sales by offering books on a subscription plan, it led to a disagreement with Kenedy, so Collier left to start his own subscription service. P.F. Collier & Son began in 1875, expanding into the largest subscription house in America with sales of 30 million books during the 1900-1910 decade.〔''Collier's'' Rise and Fall〕
In April 1888, ''Collier's Once a Week'' was launched as a magazine of "fiction, fact, sensation, wit, humor, news". By 1892, with a circulation climbing past the 250,000 mark, ''Collier's Once a Week'' was one of the largest selling magazines in the United States. The name was changed to ''Collier's Weekly: An Illustrated Journal'' in 1895. With an emphasis on news, the magazine became a leading exponent of the halftone news picture. To fully exploit the new technology, Peter Collier recruited James H. Hare, one of the pioneers of photojournalism.
Collier's only son, Robert J. Collier became a full partner in 1898. By 1914, it was known as ''Collier's: The National Weekly''. Peter Collier died in 1909. When Robert Collier died in 1918, he left a will that turned the magazine over to three of his friends: Samuel Dunn, Harry Payne Whitney and Francis Patrick Garvan.
The magazine was sold in 1919 to the Crowell Publishing Company (which in 1939 was renamed as Crowell-Collier Publishing Company.)
Printing of the magazine was done at the Crowell-Collier printing plant on West Main Street in Springfield, Ohio. The factory complex, which is still standing, was built between 1899 and 1946, and incorporates seven buildings that together have more than ——of floor space.
