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: Good vintage condition - there is evidence of reading wear with some creasing to the covers and internal pages, some wear to the covers, name stamped and written on the back cover - visible in the pictures below. The magazine pictured below is the one you will receive. Given that the magazine has celebrated its 70th birthday, its condition is good, but certainly not perfect!
