Mayfair Magazine Vol 21 No 8 Gail Thackray Sarah Jane Shirley Andrea-Louise (1439)

Original vintage Mayfair Magazine, Volume 21 Number 8, featuring glamour model and former Page Three personality Gail Thackray as the cover model and principal pictorial feature.

The contents page confirms a substantial selection of vintage model photography, including:

• Gail Thackray – cover model, Page Three personality and television star, with a featured pictorial beginning on page 51
• Sarah – glamour feature beginning on page 13
• Jane in Grey – fashion-themed pictorial beginning on page 36
• Shirley – featured model beginning on page 74
• Andrea-Louise – model feature beginning on page 91
• Silvannia – Lords-themed pictorial beginning on page 108

Alongside the model features, this issue includes articles on the Lockheed Hudson bomber, classic Opel GT cars, card playing through the ages, humour, motoring, fiction, reader services and original period advertising.

This is a genuine vintage issue rather than a modern reproduction and would appeal to collectors of classic British glamour magazines, Gail Thackray memorabilia and period men’s lifestyle publications.

Condition

Pre-owned vintage condition with clear signs of age and previous handling.

The front cover remains bright and presentable but shows visible edge wear, rubbing, small creases and softened corners. The lower-left spine corner has heavier wear with a small split or frayed area. There are also minor surface marks and slight waviness across the cover.

The spine shows rubbing and age-related wear but appears to remain attached. The rear cover has general handling marks, light creasing, edge wear and some discolouration near the lower spine area.

Internally, the photographed pages appear clean, bright and securely held, with normal age-related waviness and occasional handling marks. The Gail Thackray feature is present in the magazine. Every individual page has not been checked, so completeness beyond the photographed contents cannot be guaranteed.

Please study all supplied photographs carefully, as they form an important part of the condition description.
