These issues are in pretty good shape. These are great for those who want a complete, original, average condition issue to read and enjoy. They may have some light to moderate flaws like small tears, spots, library stamps etc. but would make a great piece of history for the budget minded to mark any occasion.

Trouble With a Sportive Spout - along a Hollywood, Florida beach, Betsy Howes tries to get a drink of water. Four sisters who all made good (see LIFE November 7, 1949), Marguerite, Maureen, Kathleen and Sheila John Daly.
