Each issue also contained the usual lavish illustrations (many in natural color), map supplements when noted, and the regular “From the National Geographic Society” sections, but the lists above are the complete main signed feature articles for the second half of 1930.

Please note: the magazines are bound without the yellow-bordered covers (and without supplementary maps and most of the advertising). 

For buyers outside of Australia:

Multiple purchases can be combined to save on shipping costs.
  1. Purchase, but do not pay for, the items you are interested in. 
  2. Use the "Request total from seller" function at checkout. I will update the invoice with the actual shipping amount for the combined order.
(I’m afraid this is the only way to manage multiple book purchases, as the size and weight and shipping destinations vary so much there isn’t a shipping cost template available on eBay to cover all the variables.)  

If you prefer, you can send me a message stating which items you are interested in purchasing (please include ebay item numbers) and the country you are in, and I will advise the actual postage cost for the lot.
