Relive the BRAVO of 1981 digitally – your favorite issues (incl. edited posters) available for individual download. No more tedious flipping through dusty magazines; instead, easy and convenient browsing on your PC, laptop, tablet, or smartphone. Immerse yourself in the exciting world of the 80s and let yourself be enchanted by the iconic issues of that year! 1981 was a year full of musical innovations and cultural upheavals. The 80s began with a true musical fireworks display, and artists like Michael Jackson, Madonna, and David Bowie set the standards that shaped pop culture for years to come. In BRAVO 1981, you found everything about your music stars, emerging fashion trends, and the latest cinema culture. Particularly noteworthy was Madonna's breakthrough with her first hit "Holiday," which paved the way for her later world cultural heritage in music history. 1981 was also the year "Raiders of the Lost Ark" and "The Empire Strikes Back" conquered cinema screens – two iconic films that became cornerstones of 80s pop culture. These issues also include all posters revised.

Please consider the historical context when reading the issues! Some formulations, views, texts, and reports may be outdated from today's perspective, but we have decided not to comment on or alter the issues retrospectively, but to leave them in their original form, as the issues represent important contemporary historical documents for us. As a cross-generational companion for young people, BRAVO offers an interesting insight into cultural development. This is precisely why it is important to pay attention to the historical and social context when reading.
A single issue refers to a single issue of BRAVO magazine from a specific year. Unlike the complete years, which include all issues from a specific year, single issues allow you to specifically select an issue that interests you – be it due to a special topic, interviews with your favorite stars, or special events. Each single issue is available as a digital PDF file and offers you the opportunity to delve into history and awaken nostalgic memories of your youth. Unlike the normal single issues, this version contains all revised posters of the respective issues as additional JPEG files.
Each PDF is high-quality digitized and corresponds to the original format, so you can experience BRAVO exactly as it appeared back then.
