Interview magazine was founded in 1969 by Andy Warhol. Nicknamed "The Crystal Ball of Pop", it features interviews with artists, musicians, thinkers and pop culture icons.
Excellent condition. Small subtle piece missing from edge of cover with light wear to the back cover and some small pieces missing see photos from actual magazine.
Overall the condition for this 40 year old newsprint magazine is superb. These are extremely fragile wood pulp style newsprint materials that weren't made to last, and light wear is normal.
Extremely scarce magazine!
