Description

This is an original vintage movie magazine, an issue of STARFIX, number 20, dated November 1984. This softcover magazine features a color photographic image on the front cover, highlighting a glamorous actress with a brown bob haircut and wearing a black necklace adorned with a central jewel. The title "STARFIX" is displayed in large white letters typical of 1980s graphic design, against a blue-gray background, with a dynamic layout characteristic of specialized press from that era.

At the bottom of the cover, "MARCEAU/ZULAWSKI: L’AMOUR BRAQUE" is featured in bold characters, along with secondary titles such as "GHOSTBUSTERS – A challenger for Indiana Jones" and "SAM SHEPARD – actor again in Country". The overall theme suggests a focus on cinematic news from the mid-1980s. The dominant colors are blue-gray, white, and shades of flesh and burgundy, with a contrasting light effect on the portrait.

The ISSN 0756-0569 is visible in the upper right corner, guaranteeing the authenticity of the publication. The spine and cover are well-preserved, with no major tears or apparent moisture marks on the visible side. "N° 20 – NOVEMBRE 84 – 20 F" is printed on the bottom left, indicating the issue number, date, and original price in French francs, as well as prices for Belgium, Switzerland, Canada, and Portugal.

The magazine features the typical layout of vintage specialized magazines: a large central photo, impactful titles, and informative subtitles. No major structural flaws are observable on the visible cover, apart from a very slight horizontal crease near the logo, characteristic of normal handling for a magazine of this age.

This issue fully illustrates the editorial and graphic style of STARFIX in the 80s, known for its in-depth film analyses and striking covers. This copy retains all its visual appeal and retro look, ideal for completing a library dedicated to film history or old specialized press.
