These vintage The Listener 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 (in black & white), and these just war-time issues are particularly interesting! There are details about Radio Broadcasts, and there are transcripts of important broadcasts, including Winston Churchill, The King and other important figures - a truly fascinating look back at history as it was actually happening!

- Marching to Brave Music by Alexander Woollcott
- Britain Expects, Britain Needs! By A. V. Alexander

Condition: The magazine is in ADEQUATE condition, CENTRAL PAGES (pictured below) ARE TATTY, LOOSE FROM THE STAPLES AND HAVE SOME MARKING, plus showing reading wear and some creasing to the covers, plus the paper is fragile and tanned with age with some brown spotting and the staples have rusted. There is a newsagent’s delivery name written on the front cover in pencil. Given that the magazine is over 75 years old, its condition is very good, but certainly not perfect! The magazine pictured below is the one you will receive.
