    • GRADING - CONDITION:
    Vintage issue of The Century Illustrated Monthly Magazine is missing the back cover. Thus only grades P-F or 1.5/10. On what remains there's heavy soiling on the front cover; top corner missing from front cover as shown; edge tears around cover as shown. Some parts of the spine remain (thus holding front cover on), though I'd say about 50% has chipped off especially at top edge and one spot just below the middle. Chipping at top edge of pages of back advertising section, possibly from mites. Otherwise inside pages are mostly clean throughout rest of issue with occasional soiling at outer margins.



  • All items that I offer for sale are vintage and date to whichever date is mentioned in the title and/or listing.

    PAYMENT:
    Payment accepted from the U.S. and around the world through PayPal. Prompt payment expected within a week at most, immediate payment most appreciated. If you require longer than a week feel free to write, I'm pretty loose as long as there's communication.


    SHIPPING NOTES:
    Please see detailed shipping rates in the eBay calculator below.

    If ordering multiple items please request an invoice. I always pull all issues ordered and charge whatever the USPS quote for multiple item orders.

    All single magazine orders ship out flat protected by a magazine hobby bag (usually BCW brand) and sandwiched between cardboard to protect from bends and bumps.

    I use the USPS for shipping.

    U.S. orders are shipped within two business days of cleared payment by First Class, Media, or Priority Mail. Will combine Media or Priority on orders of multiple issues of this title.

    Outside the U.S., Priority Mail International orders ship within one business day of cleared payment. First Class International ships out 1-2 times per week.

    I'm known for my expert packing and shipping, please see my feedback for tons of customer satisfaction!
