Notable writers and curators published in the Journal include Frances Colpitt, Mike Kelley, Peter Plagens, and Peter Schjeldahl.

The files contain records of the publication committee which include correspondence, editorial and production files, financial information, advertising files, and copies of several issues of the magazine.
