Meccano Magazine was a classic magazine for boys that ran for decades and covered not only Meccano model making but also had a wide variety of other non-fiction articles. Aside from Meccano-related articles, it also featured Hornby trains, Dinky Toys and other products made by Meccano, plus a wide variety of general interest articles, including engineering, aircraft, trains, modelling, camping, photography and philately. Additionally, the adverts are wonderful!

Condition: Very Good - there is some creasing / wear to the covers, the pages are lightly tanned with age & the staples have rusted and there’s a bit of writing on the stamp collecting page. The magazine pictured below is the one you will receive.
I accept returns, and if you'd like to see further pictures, or any questions - just ask!
