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 or giveaway ‘freebies’ gifts), are probably no longer still attached anymore – 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 do a discounted postal rate – 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

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’

These magazines are impossible to buy as back-issues anymore

When they’re gone, sadly they’re probably going to be all ‘gone for good’

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