and weekly since). We are, of course, happy to view and collect from anywhere

COUNTRY
LIFE MAGAZINES We
currently hold in stock several thousand issues of this important English
magazine. Whilst there are notable articles on most aspects of country living,
fashion, travel, collecting, country pursuits etc, it
is pre-eminent in two aspects; its articles on country houses, and the extent
and quality of its property advertisements. In its text, since 1897 to the
present day, it has published scholarly articles, many in several parts, on
country houses of the British Isles. Many of these houses no longer exist, or
are not open to the general public. Being a weekly magazine, during a hundred
plus years of publication it has managed to cover a very substantial number of
houses, both major and minor. In addition its extensive property advertisements
have always contained the finest collection of substantial houses and country
estates. If you have any interest in any of these areas, do contact us as we
may be able to supply you with the issue you require. One copy for 5 pounds,
two copies for 4 pounds each, more than two copies at 3 pounds per copy, in
each case plus normal postal charges.
