For more than 50 years, The Tennessee Magazine has been the official publication of our electric cooperatives, keeping consumer-members informed about their co-ops, showcasing the wonders of electric service and highlighting the special events around the state.
The cover of the October 1972 magazine featured a special series of Country Music Hall of Fame portraits made available to readers of The Tennessee Magazine. Inside, readers also learned about the Annual Show of the Hickman County Chapter of the National Chrysanthemum Society in Centerville.
While our fashions, appliances and recipes have significantly changed since our first issue in 1958, our mission to entertain, educate and inform our readers has not. Here’s a glimpse of what members saw 50 years ago in The Tennessee Magazine. View the entire October 1972 edition online below.
