Loaded Magazine June 1995 Shaun Ryder Lisa Snowdon Ron Atkinson SKU 1462

Original vintage Loaded Magazine – June 1995, cover price £2.20, featuring Shaun Ryder prominently on the front cover with the headline “The Guvnor – Shaun Ryder Goes Straight.”

A very distinctive early Loaded issue from the magazine's classic mid-1990s period, combining British music, football, comedy, film, fashion, sport and the irreverent editorial style associated with Loaded during this era.

The supplied photographs show a substantial amount of the original contents and, importantly for collectors, the original Lisa Snowdon / Kenny Dalglish gatefold poster feature is still present inside.

⭐ ORIGINAL GATEFOLD POSTER PRESENT

This copy very clearly does contain the advertised gatefold poster, so this is an important part of the listing.

The front cover advertises:

“YES!!! KENNY DALGLISH AND LISA SNOWDON GATEFOLD POSTER”

The supplied photographs show the gatefold opened out inside the magazine.

The visible poster section is a large-format, multi-panel black-and-white/sepia photographic presentation featuring Lisa Snowdon, extending across several folding panels. She is shown reclining in a fashion/lingerie-style studio photograph, giving the insert the distinctive mid-1990s Loaded glamour photography look.

The poster folds out substantially beyond the normal magazine page size and retains its original fold lines as expected from its gatefold construction. The photographs indicate that the gatefold remains attached to the magazine rather than being removed.

The cover specifically identifies this as the Kenny Dalglish and Lisa Snowdon gatefold poster, making its survival particularly worthwhile for collectors because removable and fold-out extras are often missing from older magazines.

Condition – Please Read Carefully

Pre-owned vintage condition with visible age, storage and handling wear. This is not a mint/newsstand copy, and the condition has been assessed from all photographs supplied.

Visible points include:

• Front cover has noticeable surface rubbing, scuffs and handling marks, particularly across the darker areas.
• General spine rubbing and edge wear from age and storage.
• Lower-left front corner has visible rubbing and light creasing.
• Bottom front edge shows general shelf wear.
• Top edge has some minor wear and slight unevenness.
• Upper and lower spine corners show wear consistent with repeated handling.
• Right-hand cover edge has some small knocks/nicks and rubbing.
• There is visible creasing and light bending around the outer corners.
• Magazine does not sit completely flat and shows normal age-related curvature.
• Rear cover has visible edge/corner wear and surface marks.
• Spine appears to remain together from the photographs.
• Interior pages shown remain colourful, legible and generally well preserved for their age.
• Some internal page edges show light age/handling wear.
• The gatefold poster is present and attached.
• The poster naturally has several factory fold lines/creases because of its multi-panel gatefold design.
• No obvious large tears to the displayed poster panels are visible in the supplied photographs.
• No obvious handwritten notes or deliberate writing are visible in the photographs provided.

Overall this is a genuine used 1995 collector's copy, showing the type of wear expected from a magazine that is now around 30 years old, but with the significant advantage of retaining the photographed original gatefold poster.

Collector Interest

A particularly interesting issue for collectors of:

Shaun Ryder / Happy Mondays / Black Grape memorabilia, Lisa Snowdon, Kenny Dalglish, Ron Atkinson, Christopher Lee / Hammer Horror, Darren Gough, vintage football memorabilia and original 1990s Loaded magazines.

The surviving gatefold insert is a major bonus compared with copies where the original removable/folding extras have been lost.

Packaging & Postage

The magazine will be carefully prepared for dispatch, with protection appropriate to its size and condition. It will be packed using sturdy cardboard and/or protective bubble wrap, helping protect the covers, corners, spine and especially the retained gatefold section from bending, knocks and rubbing while in transit.
