Important Added Info: Note that this is one of a group of 7 Spanish magazines we were consigned that are all from classic 1920s movies. Each one has a text adaptation of the film, with one or more images from the movie within the images, and a cover image from that movie (they are like U.S. Grosset & Dunlap movie editions, except that they are not books, but are small digest magazines that measures 4 1/4" x 6". Note that we have provided a picture of the front cover of the magazine, and pictures of interior two-page spreads (including the table of contents page if there is one; but we didn't make much effort to find the best ones!). These images should greatly help you judge the overall condition of the magazine, and the contents page lets you know exactly what articles and stories are contained in this particular issue. Please know that these magazines are sealed in bags and are ready for shipping, and we cannot answer any questions about them or look through them for you, so please bid (or do not bid) based on the images we have provided.

Condition: very good.
