Hello

I collect National Geographic back issues. I have a complete set from May 1996 till now, but nothing from Jan 1990 - April 1995. I also have an almost complete set from Jan 1962 - Dec 1989. So I'm very keen to fill the gap between 1990 and 1996 initially but also anything before 1962.

I'm based in Harpenden, Hertfordshire, but would obviously be willing to pay postage on top of whatever you are charging. Could you let me know what you have, and what condition they are in, and whether they also contain the maps, inserts etc?

I'm hopeless with this electronic media stuff, so bear with me if it takes me a while to reply!

Yours

I've had a look through and There are many I need. I have shaded the ones I need in yellow - they are all the issues you have from 1944 - 1954 (97 issues by my reckoning).

I am happy to offer £2.50 per issue, which makes a total of £242.50. This doesn't include postage and packing, but since I live in Hertfordshire, I'd be happy to come and collect, possibly as early as this Sunday, if you are in.

We are likely to be moving house in the next month, so sending by post might be complicated anyway.

Please let me know if this offer is acceptable to you.

yours

John

Kind regards
Michael.
