For UK buyers, my postage charge is based on £3.69, the actual cost at the Post Office counter, then 51p to cover a new Jiffy padded envelope, card stiffeners, comic bag and the percentage of the postage taken by Ebay.

Combined postage - For buyers in the UK. I only need to charge you p&p for the first magazine. Any extra purchases will be sent at no additional cost - you only pay for that first magazine.

For overseas buyers, I aim to charge just the basics; the postage cost, the envelope and packaging cost, plus Ebay's surcharge, nothing more. To save money, please consider International Economy (surface mail). It's slower, but in some cases, only about half the cost of Airmail (International Standard).

Here is the Radio Times for 31 July - 6 August 1949. This is the North of England (radio only, no tv) edition, sold originally for twopence (2d).

 

The cover features lovely artwork by CW Hodges, promoting programmes for the Bank Holiday weekend.

Full listings are given for all BBC radio programmes. Please note that even in London, viewers needed to be the special TV edition for tv listings.



The magazine is in good condition, clean and flat, with no clippings or annotations, just with a little fraying down the spine.
