Good condition. Please note the centrespread poster is missing from this issue, so the page numbers run to 12, then pick up from page 17 (both sides so pages 13-14 and 15-16 absent). The song book is not inside this issue, which is otherwise complete. The cover page is partially detached from the rest of the magazine (loose at the bottom staple). Staples have rusted a little but rest of the magazine is intact. Cover is clean and bright. No writing nor marks. Scarce issue number 1 of this cult sixties music and fashion magazine.
Insurance and tracking is included in post.
