These vintage Picture Post magazines are a wonderful resource of news and contemporary thought - giving insight to the news, politics and current affairs of the world. There are articles and lots of pictures, and these 1950s issues are particularly interesting! And the advertisements are great, too.

Condition: The magazine is in good vintage condition, showing reading wear and some creasing to the covers, plus the staples have rusted, making the pages loose and some staining damage around the staples, there is a newsagent’s delivery name written on the front cover - visible in the pictures below. Given that the magazine is over 65 years old, its condition is pretty good, but certainly not perfect! The magazine pictured below is the one you will receive.
