The condition of this and the other issues I am listing is excellent. – light paper age, no tears, no holes, no folds other than the centerfold (as issued)..no fraying. One would be very hard pressed to find better condition than this. Tight..Looks like they were put away in 1968-69, maybe unread. For 55 year old newsprint , pretty amazing.
