This listing is for the January 1939 issue of Model Airplane News.
The January '39 issue is notable for the fact that there are an astonishing number of advertisements for what appears to be dozens of gas engine designs. It's as if the market suddenly bloomed with new models of miniature gas engines during the end of 1938 into '39! A treasure trove of documentation awaits all you MECOA members in here!
Construction articles and plans for models
1) rubber powered canard or tandem wing
2) rubber semi-scale Curtiss Robin of the type 'Wrong Way Corrigan' flew over the Atlantic
3) 3 foot span gas cabin job Sport FF

This copy is complete except for its first page and back cover which is missing. Besides the completely detached front cover and the missing back cover, it presents in what I consider to be typical used condition for its age. The pages are white and not faded and all the articles and plans for all model designs are present and usable!

I am not a professional magazine grader, so
Please use the photos to judge for yourself and make your own decision about what the condition is!
