Condition - Excellent. Please note the brown 'smudges' on the cover over the models arms and face are actually part of the design.  The spine is a little worn on the top left and is missing the top 2cm of paper cover  - apart from that it is superb.  The spine is still sturdy and it is complete. This photograph is of the actual magazine you will receive.
