It All Began with PhotoKlassik International
The First Steps of an International Magazine for Analog Photography
by Hermann Groeneveld / SilvergrainClassics

SilvergrainClassics celebrated its 25th issue at the end of 2024 with an exploration of the future of film photography. But there is also a commitment to the magazine’s origins: it started in 2018 as PhotoKlassik International, the English-language offshoot of the German publication PhotoKlassik. PhotoKlassik International continued the success story of the German magazine, but always had its own content and focus.
Speaking of reasons to celebrate, another one is coming up in the spring of 2025: SilvergrainClassics has been appearing as an independent magazine for five years now. But as we said, we have not forgotten our roots. After five creative years, we are happy to remind you of the first steps our editorial team, authors, and photographers took towards bringing the international film photography community closer. The five issues of PhotoKlassik International should be in your archive, because our magazines are timeless collectibles. They clearly convey the message that analog photography deserves to be printed, and enjoyed for years to come.
Today we have a special offer for you! To remember our beginnings, and to complete your collection, you can buy the five issues of PhotoKlassik International individually or as a complete set at a reduced price. Among them is a very special gem: the 130-page 1st Special Edition. Our passion for film is already evident in this first issue, and the quality of the content and printing are what make SilvergrainClassics what it is today, what has attracted international attention, and what our readers value.
