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 to help out – Not a problem, just ask!
I have literally thousands more Motorcycle magazines, from many, MANY more different 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 ‘the-pygmalion-effect’ scrawled
across the front cover, like it is in the photo above - that is just my shops ‘watermark’

Most of 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
