IF 1956,October

Tight and almost square with flat spine. 3" fold-trace at upper right corner of front cover and a very faint "25" in pen written across it - otherwise it looks close to near-Fine. There is prominent sun-fading along right side and bottom of front cover - the rest looks as it should. (I imagine a stack of magazines with a block of wood or something sitting on top, in a place which gets sun every day. This would be the top magazine - with bright colors where it was protected.) The contents page has prominent age-tanning 1" along right side and bottom edge; all other interior pages look normal, with age-tanning is average for its vintage.
