4 S. Central Ave. Clayton MO 63105

2012 | Best Newsstand

Newsstands are obviously an endangered species these days. Luckily, St. Louis has the Sumatran rhino of newsstands -- every bit as rare, hard-nosed and as magnificent as the nearly extinct animal. The shop still holds onto that charming old-fashioned feeling, nestled on one of the cutest corners of Clayton and complete with a clerk listening to the ball game on the radio as he guards the cigs behind the counter. Pick up a daily paper from any number of major cities, snoop through a rack... More »

An informed citizenry is necessary to maintain an effective democracy in these times of political madness and relentless spin. There's misinformation attacking us from all angles, and the only way to maintain intellectual integrity is through a dedicated thirst for truth. With stacks and stacks of Sundays and dailies from around America and the world, and racks and racks of more than 2,500 magazines, World News Ltd. is here to satiate that thirst. Seemingly every conceivable topic can be... More »

In the mood to peruse newsprint in Italian, Spanish, French, Arabic or Greek? At World News Ltd., across Central Avenue from Clayton City Hall, the Selvidge family has been hawking American and international dailies since 1967. The magazine racks take up half the store and cover a wide spectrum: fashion and photography, sports and science, cars and current events. An issue of highbrow policy review World Affairs was recently spotted right next to a paperback copy of Letters to Penthouse... More »

Another year has come and gone and, for now at least, the venerable 41-year-old World News Ltd. is still standing at its longtime downtown-Clayton location. Wherever it ends up, there's no doubt that World News will land on its feet. Where else in St. Louis can one find newspapers from around the world, the best British music mags and every sort of specialty publication imaginable? If on the very off chance you want something World News doesn't carry, the staff is happy to take requests... More »
2007 | Best Newsstand

Now in its fortieth year of operation, and facing an almost-certain relocation (the building has been sold, but there's no timetable for the move), World News Ltd. in Clayton remains the go-to spot for print-media fiends. The nondescript storefront at the corner of Forsyth Boulevard and South Central Avenue in Clayton is home to a voluminous selection. We're talking everything from Bowhunting Magazine to the French edition of Vogue, with gazillions of titles spanning all the interests in... More »
2006 | Best Newsstand

Still the top fix for St. Louis news junkies, this 39-year-old downtown Clayton institution is a must, whether you're looking for the commonplace or the obscure. And we do mean obscure. Where else in this town can you find the Nikkei Weekly, a leading Japanese business journal, or an erudite periodical like the Fletcher Forum of World Affairs and the Hedgehog Review? Glistening in sleek, orderly rows, more than 2,500 magazine titles are on display within the confines of this inviting corner... More »
2005 | Best Newsstand

Still the undisputed heavyweight champion, this unassuming corner storefront in the heart of downtown Clayton is a mandatory destination before your next two-layover flight, inpatient surgery or bathroom break. The secret to its success is simply the classic newsstand formula. You'll find newspapers both domestic and foreign, serious and celebrity-cellulite obsessed, the latest hardcover and paperback best sellers, comic books on a spinning rack and magazines. Oh, God, the magazines. What... More »
2004 | Best Newsstand

You're the kind of person who walks into a bookstore and immediately says to yourself, "Aaack! Books! Where the heck are the magazines?" So why bother going to bookstores at all? Stick to World News Ltd., a store that takes the world's glossy and newsprinted pages very, very seriously. World News doesn't just carry Vogue, the place carries the American, British, Spanish, French and Italian versions of Vogue. Everything from highly intellectual -- three different chess magazines! -- to... More »
2003 | Best Newsstand

With hundreds of titles and the most eclectic assortment of magazines in the St. Louis area, World News easily eclipses any other news peddler in town. Tired of the local daily seed catalogue? World News stocks more than a dozen American Sunday newspapers, plus daily editions of the New York Times and Chicago Tribune. Weary of U.S. press? World News offers a diverse selection of foreign publications, ranging from the Times of London and the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung to Al-Ahram and La... More »

Imagine: Three brothers are sitting around a table. "Mikey," the freckled youngest, has a glass bowl in front of him loaded high with Life cereal. One of his brothers warns ominously: "Mikey doesn't like anything." Mikey waits. He then takes a... More »
