Lot of original National Geographic magazines, with the classic yellow-bordered covers. Overall, in good used condition. All four magazines appear complete and readable, but show storage and handling wear. Covers have rubbing, scratches, creases edge wear, and bent or curled corner areas. Spine edges show rubbing and small areas of wear. No visible major detached covers or missing pages. The bundle includes: 1.
