There are articles and lots of pictures, and these war-time issues are particularly interesting! And the advertisements are great, too.

The magazine is large format, measuring appoximately 35cm by 26cm, with 28 pages
Condition: The magazine is in good condition, showing reading wear and some creasing to the covers & some damage to the edge of the cover at the spine, plus the paper is fragile and tanned with age and the staples have rusted, making the pages loose. Given that the magazine is around 75 years old, its condition is pretty good, but certainly not perfect! The magazine pictured below is the one you will receive.
I accept returns, and if you’d like any further information, just ask!
