Have you ever wondered what older editions of Persona looked like? I know we have, so we went to the Poetry Center to scan the covers, staff pages, and table of content pages of all our magazines since 1978 to share with you. Please check it out and let us know what you think. Here’s a link to take you directly to the archive https://bit.ly/2pvt59H
