Any ‘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), are probably no longer still attached anymore – if they are, I’ll include it & 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 to help out – Not a problem, just ask!
I literally have thousands more Motorcycle magazines, from many, MANY other publications covering all decades from the 50’s to present day – Please, have look in my eBay shop, you just might find another issue with your bike in
Please Note: the Magazine that you buy will NOT have the words ‘pygmalion-effect’ across the front cover, like it is in the photo above - that is just my shops ‘watermark’

Its now practically impossible to acquire these back-issues anymore
When they’re gone, sadly they’re probably going to be ‘gone for good’
