*****
Amazingly rare artefact. These early issues of Picture Post are extremely difficult to find - there's only a finite amount of these old magazines left in the world!
Excellent condition. Staples secure. Complete. Small chip at top of spine on cover page, and light marking to cover. This magazine from the 1940's and is still remarkably scarce.
This original magazine also comes from a smoke-free environment. All of our magazines are professionally stored inside acid-free archival and anti-UV plastic sleeves to protect from discolouration.
Scarce collector's item - posted with full insurance & online tracking. Mailed with an archival sleeve and a board and/or bubblewrap envelope. Many more rare fashion magazines in our shop...We are happy to combine post.
