PICTURE POST
Picture Post was the classic photo illustrated magazine of its day, and it ran from October 1938 to June 1957
Most of these papers have rusting around the staples, and a few have some loose pages, but are all complete.
Picture Posts have lots of great wartime adverts, especially those advertising to tell you their products aren't available!
As there was a huge drive to recycle paper during Pre War / World War 2, these papers really shouldn't have survived.
Some issues have a short pencil name or address on either the front or back covers
