Description

An old issue of the French magazine "Les Annales," dated August 15, 1928, shown here with its original cover. The visual shows the front cover, pale blue with a green tint, adorned with a central black woodcut-style illustration, signed "Bois de Laforge." The title "LES ANNALES" appears in large block letters at the top of the page, in a font typical of the 1920s.

Below the illustration, the list of the issue's main articles is clearly printed, highlighting several topics and authors: "Souvenirs de Lycée, by J.-J. Tharaud," "Les Jeux Olympiques d’Amsterdam, by Jean Silvain," "La Vallée du Petit-Morin, by Pierre Mac Orlan," "La Mort de Dinah, novel by Emmanuel Bove," "Au Monastère, by Claude Chauvière."

Editorial information is clearly visible: the publication date "15 Août 1928" is at the bottom left, and the original price "Le N° 2 fr. 50" is at the bottom right. The paper shows a slight patina and yellowed edges, typical of newspapers and magazines of that era, testifying to its age and preservation. No other details of the interior content or the back are visible in the image.

The magazine is placed on a weathered wooden surface, with shelves of old books in the background, which highlights its retro and authentic character. The cover appears flat, with no major tears or visible marks on this side, but may show signs of common wear and tear for a periodical of this period.

Used item, sold as is. Cover with visible patina and slightly yellowed edges, with no major apparent defects on the presented side. The other sides or the interior are not visible and cannot be described.
