Ebay has a good selection. I suggest though using image search on a search engine. I use google images and type in what I am looking for. There is definitely a classic magazine niche audience out there. Verse of the month was always inspiring and the Mic rating system used to be the gospel until Lil Kim got 5 mics for 'The naked truth' I think the LP was called but she was dating Benzino at the time lol.

Xxl had better covers
If you are going to bring XXL into the conversation of greatest cover the only right answer is the 2000 Lil Kim issue.

They have stylish covers for sure, they included all forms of black culture not just hiphop like The Source but to be honest when I read their articles they always tend to sh1t on the rappers or people I like. I remember one VIBE article they were interviewing Nas and was sh1tting on him at the exact same time. Calling him a hypocrite for saying people using Pac and Biggies name for clout because they held a lot of power and they accused him of doing that in 'got yourself a gun' video.
Other sh1t too like saying he doesn't want to be a superstar is like saying an NBA player doesn't want a championship ring. It read off like a set up and ambush so much so in MTV Diary of ... On Nas's episode he sh1ts on VIBE saying they haven't got a clue.
Very exquisite covers though, they remain stylish.

This the best Vibe cover.
It's so ordinary though. It doesn't showcase anything TI is about or the theme of this particular interview/episode.TI has been in better fits too lol.
@ Neyo in the corner saying he is a sex addict. Now he has 4 wives all pregnant lol.

Found an archive of all the quotables, wish they had one in order though
"WHY HES READY TO SNAP!" Do you not see see him pulling the rubberband on the wad of money with his thumb? And it summed up his new cocky and aggressive attitude around this time. This was the birth of short man complex T.I. Nothing ordinary about it in context.
