Excellent condition. The photographs you see are of the actual magazine, light layer of paper loss to bottom of spine but all pages held securely still. You can just make out previous owner's name in pencil on the back cover.
Post includes insurance & online tracking. Mailed with a Flyweight board in an archive sleeve. We are happy to combine orders.
