Description
Volume 1, Number 1 of the iconic magazine. Features full-color nude of Marilyn Monroe. This item can be shipped in-house.
Condition
Stamped "Nov 4 1953" above magazine title. A few minor ripples, but no serious creases or tears. Good corners and interior pages. Very nice condition overall. There's a 3/4" round water droplet stain on the cover in a white space that bleeds through the cover, which can be removed by a competent paper conservator.
