Condition: These 60+ year-old magazines were a barn find and naturally show signs of age, though appear complete and readable. Covers: Generally good, though vary by issue. May show scuffs, dirt, ink, and some water stains. A few covers are loose. The initial photos show fronts/backs of all issues, while the other show close-ups. Please review carefully to assess the condition. Inside: Pages have been spot-checked and appear clean with no tears or marked pages. I have not checked every page of every issue. While there are no obvious signs of mold, there is a mildew smell that is common with old paper. This smell will likely be more pronounced upon opening the shipping package. Please ask me PRIOR to buying if you have questions or want any details on a specific issue. These are sold 'as is" with no returns. Shipping Savings Get combined shipping on additional lots purchased in the same order. (I will refund the lower priced shipping charge(s) after your order.)
