quote: Originally posted by chegitz guevara I remember this issue. They covered several wars, the two of which stand out in my head were the war in Northern Ireland (which is on the cover) and the war in Lebanon.

I suppose I don't usually think of the Northern Ireland conflict as a "war".

I'm looking at the covers in 1969 (when my wife was born).

Man, they all suck! Who thought those drawings would be attractive?

Thanks - should have found that myself

My first impression was one of these market mechaincs that shows for example how mining was done in the 18'enth century - i think you have to go to a museum to see them nowadays. "Den gamle by" in Århus have one if i'm not wrong (thats where i saw it too many years ago)
