All the magazines I’m selling are mostly in an excellent clean and in a tear & rip free condition.

Any ‘Free’ Gifts that are sometimes given away with these magazines (i.e. cloth patches, key-rings, sticker sheets, Glamour model calendars, supplements, info booklets, supplementary posters or giveaway ‘freebie’ gifts), are probably NOT attached anymore, or even included with the magazine – if they are, consider it as an added bonus, but please don’t expect them to be included within the magazine you’re buying

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 publications, covering decades, up to 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 ‘the-pygmalion-effect’ 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 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

‘You deserve it’
