Description: This poignant cover shows Andes plane crash survivor, Gustavo Zerbino, a young medical student, wearing the cap of a dead crew member and sunglasses made from the sun-visors from the pilot’s cabin, wire and a bra strap, to protect him from snow blindness. In a world exclusive, survivors from this disaster recall their extreme tale of survival to the Observer, in a series of magazines published over the course of a few weeks. A memorably told story of human endurance, sheer courage and cannibalism. This is part one. See our other listings for the other issues published in this series. More recently, this incredible story was made into an Oscar nominated feature film for Netflix in 2024; Society Of The Snow - which recounts the miracle of the Andes and how the rugby team from Uruguay survived 10 weeks on top of a mountain in Chile. 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. Excellent condition. Rare find. 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).
