Grading Abbreviations: The abbreviations at the end of the listed issues ("VG" or "FN" for example) are my grading of the condition based on the standard grading scale used on eBay. The grading scale is reproduced below if you're not familiar. Most of the issues in this listing will be towards the average or lower end of the grading spectrum; these are reading copies or average copies. These counterculture magazines are a wonderful timewarp and they deserve to be read and handled, so most of these copies are perfect for someone wanting to do a 'limited hangout,' as it were, in the most intense and vibrant era of modern American history. The ads for vinyl LPs and books are worth the price of admission alone. Mailing Details: Issues purchased will be mailed in BCW-brand sleeves and backing boards.
