Revista Católica was a Catholic magazine that was published between 1875-1962. The magazine was first based in Las Vegas, New Mexico, and then, in El Paso, Texas.
Revista Católica was launched by Donato M. Gasparri, S.J. in 1875.[1] The first issue appeared on 2 January. The goal of the magazine was stated in the first issue to present local, national and international news and to offer religious information.[1] It was published by the Imprenta de Río Grande (Río Grande Press) at a Jesuit college in Las Vegas, New Mexico, on a weekly basis.[1] In 1916 the magazine was moved to El Paso, Texas.[1] There the publisher was Revista Press. From 1955 the frequency of the magazine was switched from weekly to bimonthly. Revista Católica folded in 1962,[2] and the last issue was published on 16 September.[3]
