Classic Images is a monthly American mail-subscription newspaper in tabloid format, founded in 1962 by film collector Samuel K. Rubin, dedicated to film and television of the "Golden Age". Its offices are located in Muscatine, Iowa, and it is published by the Muscatine Journal division of Lee Enterprises, Inc. As of May 2023, 570 issues of Classic Images have been published. Classic Images, which has readers around the world, was founded in 1962 and was first known as The 8mm Collector (issues 1-15) and later as Classic Film Collector (issues 16-60). The magazine under the name Classic Film Collector was published quarterly in Indiana, Pennsylvania. At first, the magazine focused heavily on reviews and information on silent films available on the then-flourishing 8mm film home movie market, the performers and filmmakers of the silent period, and leaders and trends in the current home movie industry. Over the years, Classic Images has become an increasingly important source of information on collectible film art such as posters and lobby cards. Films available in various widths such as 16mm and 8mm received coverage, also. Since the demise of a rival publication, The Big Reel, Classic Images became the foremost publication for 16mm and 8mm collectors, until the decline of those films given the rise of Blu-ray and other high-definition video formats.
