“Goodbye, Colorado”

“Goodbye, Colorado”

“After 149 years and 311 days, the Rocky Mountain News published its final edition on February 27, 2009.”

The Rocky was a fantastic newspaper. It covered stories better than The Post did, had a personality not many big-city newspapers have, and the comics section was top shelf.

Be sure to check out the “Goodbye, Colorado” permalink which has the text and a picture of the front page of the Rocky’s final issue. I love that the design is directly from the very first issue and the article’s byline is simply, “The Rocky”.
