Published in Britain
English Vogue began in 1916 and this issue is a rare artefact. These early issues of UK Vogue are supremely difficult to find now.
During World War II British Vogue was kept in print as a part of the war effort. One of its influences was to encourage people to recycle and contribute paper to the war effort. They sent their archives to be pulped and had features on taking part in the war effort. As a result any British Vogue pre-1945 are some of the rarest magazines on the planet.
The condition is wonderful for a magazine of this vintage. It has light repairs see detailed photographs. Some spots where the neck and collar join (see all photos from the actual magazine). Priced according to condition and scarcity
Shipping includes insurance & online tracking. We are also happy to combine post.
