IMPORTANT NOTES:
1. These magazines are sold solely as research material, not collectability
2. Be assured that there will be no missing pages and no major damage to the cover or pages, but you may get some or all of these conditions: discoloration, fraying, small tears or page folds, stains or loose bindings.
3. These magazines are sold for the research value of reference to the articles only, not for ‘collector value’ nor for any other value that might otherwise be found in pristine material.
4. You are buying used magazines were printed on the common paper since they would be out of date in a month and then discarded. They definitely weren't intended to last 40+ years, and few were saved.
