The Chicagoan was a Chicago culture magazine published from June 1926 until April 1935. In the years after it folded the magazine was largely forgotten about until 73 years later when Neil Harris rediscovered the magazine and published The Chicagoan: A Lost Magazine of the Jazz Age.
“It’s a crescent-shaped town, 26 miles by 15, along a great lake that’s begun to weaken and recede. No wonder. An unchallenged murder record — a splendid university — hobo capital to the country — railroad ruler, corn baron, liquor king — and the finest of grand opera. Altogether the most zestful spectacle on this sphere.”
