The Palimpsest Magazine
The State Historical Society of Iowa
January through December 1939 (12 Monthly Issues)

I have several auctions for these magazines from 1935 through 1949. I will combine shipments to reduce handling and shipping.

Each issue has four or so stories on the history of the state and its people. There are a few photos and maps; most of the contents is text.

These are all from the era when the magazines had the brown or beige covers trimmed oversized from the contents. In general, condition of the pages and binding is good. Slight yellowing of pages. Condition of the covers is fair +. I found few tears but many  covers have some soiling. I've noted any variances below.

I've inspected all covers and have thumbed through the pages (not a page-by-page inspection). If you have questions about a certain issue, please let me know. If you are looking for a certain article, let me know the topic and year and I will check for it.

This auction: Cover edges wrinkled a bit. JUN cover has a dog ear. 

Shipping and handling: Use the Zip Code calculator to determine handling and shipping. Tracking is included. Insurance is optional. Shipping to the U.S. only. I will combine shipments to save handling and shipping costs.

Business Details: I will contact the winning bidder by email soon after the end of the auction. Preferred payment is by PayPal. I also accept money orders or cashiers' checks. I also will accept personal checks but will hold the shipment until the check clears. I hold shipment up to 10 calendar days, depending on your location. The hold is calculated from the next business day after your check arrives. If you pay with e-check to my PayPal account, I will ship after the payment has cleared (usually 3 or 4 days). The hold does not apply to normal PayPal payments, because they clear as soon as you send them.

Please email any questions before bidding.

Thank you and Good Luck!
