National Geographic Magazine from July 1958. Another great issue from the end of Geographic's golden era...articles on "West From The Khyber Pass", "The Thames Mirrors England's Varied Life", "The Past is Present in Greenfield Village", and "DEW Line, Sentry of the Far North". Splendidly illustrated ("eighty pages of illustrations in color") and written issue, in VG-F condition with very minor edge wear. Insert map is absent. Plenty of old ads for steamship lines (Cunard), railways, the legendary Zenith Trans-Oceanic radio, Argus cameras, Magnavox TV's, etc. The new Chevrolet "Biscayne" was so big it required its own zipcode! On the back cover, a group of happy travelers enjoy Coca-Colas in front of the Matterhorn...yodel-ay-hee-hoo! Magazine dimensions 10" x 7". Only one in stock.
