Hello there everyone,

here I am coping with a last-minute translation; it's about the bio of a famous photographer...how would you translate "testate della stampa illustrata"?
All suggestions are very much appreciated!
Thanks in advance

the most important magazines

Explanation:
this is just a verbose Italian way of saying "magazines". Like saying "trasporto pubblico su gomma" for "bus" and "struttura alberghiera" for "hotel"

magazines and newspapers if you don't want to say periodicals... or just magazines if you think there are no newspapers included.
