Mary Suzuki illustrations.

Seventeen was published in the USA

The cover  model is Rita Egan and it is photographed by Dan Wynn.


Priced according to condition - this is a very rare and sought after issue -
The condition is worn and there are 10+ pages missing mostly from the advertisements and minor articles. Both the key features Gene Kelly and Diane Arbus are fully intact.
The line going through the cover does not extend beyond that and we have also included a photograph of the back cover.

The photographs you see are of the actual magazine.

Our Covid Virus Plan - July 2020

We are still trading. We are still posting sales.  The post office has advised, as an essential service, that it will remain open. There are also extra cargo planes to keep up with demand, and couriers such as FedEx and DHL have increased capacity.

We have lots of packaging in stock, we started self isolating in early March and we have a new, very stringent cleaning routine in place.

We have thousands of magazines close to us in our archive and office and we also have many more in boxes in storage. Any stock we retrieve is being handled with gloves.  All of our stock is already sealed, as all our vintage magazines are stored in individual archive sleeves, in acid-free boxes, and in climate-controlled art storage.

The world has changed and it will continue to change in profound ways that we cannot fully imagine.  We have no other income and we really appreciate any sales we make that at this time. As we start this long path of isolation and spend more time cut off we are, in a small way, a little excited about the idea of being able to provide reading material and rare magazines for people all over the world. With love from all of of us at this very difficult time.

Stay safe.
