This very scarce magazine also has an extremely rare profile of the new film Alien. On-set access was granted to the writers who interview the producers, actors and writers. We've never heard these quotes form the writer before. H.R. Giger artwork and stills form the film feature over 3 pages. a must have for any collector. Ultra Rare issue dated September 2nd, 1979!

These  impossible to find, vintage issues of the The Observer magazine were only published for one day in the UK, back in the seventies. They were out as a supplement to the newspaper with no publicity and were mostly discarded.

Very good condition. the top left of the spine has been professionally repaired with archival tape where it was split around the back. It's almost invisible and we mention for accuracy. See the photos and full back cover image for more detail. The photograph shows the actual magazine you will receive. There is very light wear but it's a lightweight fragile magazines that is 40 years old. It also has a slight bend through the magazine see double page spread cropped image to get an idea.

Our postal services include an option to have your magazine sent by Next Day Guaranteed Delivery (UK customers only - overseas delivery is with the 'International Signed For' service which takes approx 3-6 days).  All rates include online tracking and insurance.
