The ‘Free’ Gifts that are sometimes given away with the magazine (i.e. cloth patches, key-rings, sticker sheets, nude girl & lingerie model calendars, supplements, info booklets, supplementary posters or giveaway ‘freebies’ gifts), are not always still attached anymore, or even with the magazine – if they are, consider it as an added bonus, but please don’t expect them to be included within your purchase of the magazine

 

If you wish to purchase more than one magazine - I will happily offer you a discounted postal rate for combined purchases – Not a problem, just ask!

 

I literally have thousands more Motorcycle magazines, from many more publications, covering all decades from the 60’s, right up to the present day – Please have look in my eBay shop, you just might find another issue with your bike in  

 

Please Note: Your purchase WILL NOT have the words ‘pygmalion-effect’ across the front cover, like it is in the photo above - that is just my shops ‘watermark’

These magazines are now impossible to even buy as back-issues anymore  

So, when they’re gone, sadly they’re probably going to be ‘gone for good’!

a good ol' nostalgic read . . . . for just a few quid
