Original UK Zoo Magazine, Issue 343, dated 8-14 October 2010, with an original UK cover price of £1.80. This is Zoo’s “Posh Girls Issue”, with the magazine mixing glamour photography, celebrity coverage, sport, motoring, current affairs, humour and its regular men’s lifestyle features. The issue has a particularly strong celebrity/model line-up, with Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Emma Watson, Sam Rowley and Lady Isabella Hervey all specifically named on the front cover, alongside the main Posh Girls feature. FRONT COVER The striking green-and-white cover is dominated by the “POSH GIRLS GET NAUGHTY!” feature. Around the main cover photograph are additional named appearances including: Rosie Huntington-Whiteley Emma Watson Sam Rowley Lady Isabella Hervey The front also advertises Zoo’s recurring Prudence feature and includes additional headlines covering Afghanistan, football and the Paris Motor Show. There is also some handwritten pricing/marking visible near the top of the front cover, which is worth noting for collectors. POSH GIRLS FEATURE The photographed contents confirm that the central glamour feature begins around page 40 and is introduced as: “Prudence Presents a Guide to… Posh Girls” The feature is styled around an upper-class / society glamour theme and includes a selection of models and personalities. Names visibly referenced on the opening spread include: Emma Watson Paris Hilton Sam Rowley Gemma Arterton Rosie Huntington-Whiteley The feature uses full-page editorial photography and a polished fashion/glamour presentation rather than simply appearing as small news photographs. ROSIE HUNTINGTON-WHITELEY Rosie Huntington-Whiteley is specifically named and pictured on the front cover as part of the issue’s central theme. She is also referenced again within the photographed Posh Girls editorial, making her appearance more substantial than a simple cover mention. This issue therefore has particular interest for collectors of Rosie Huntington-Whiteley magazine appearances from the period before her later major film and international fashion prominence.
