| As the name implies, in the best condition one could reasonably expect for a magazine upwards of twenty-five years old. Lightly read through and stored on a bookshelf or in boxes, vertically & snugly in magazine holders |
A little more wear than those 'like new' although still in very good condition for magazines of this age. Also stored as those like new but with their increased age and perhaps more read throughs, there is discernible wear in the area of the staples with some examples having the cover detaching or detached. Noted specific to each issue. |
This is the lowest category and the page damage is not what one might think! Examples are given here and we have attempted to correct the flaws with varying success. The process involved using acetone (nail polish remover) to remove typewriter correction fluid that had been applied many years ago to simulate a certain look. A generation later we have the magic of AI software that blows the efforts of years ago out of the water! Still, given the rarity of some of these issues, and the fact that the vast majority of pages are undamaged, it would be silly to discard them. Rather, the price will be adjusted to reflect.
