Art New Zealand Issues 44–53 (1987–89) – Pristine, All Original Inserts Included

Collector Note: This listing forms part of a carefully preserved two-bundle group of Art New Zealand magazines from the 1980s, all in comparable collector-grade condition with original inserts intact. Check my other listing.

These copies are notable for their outstanding preservation:

• Internally pristine – no pen or pencil markings in any issue
• Clean, crisp pages throughout
• Original subscription cards, renewal cards, and promotional inserts all intact

Such completeness is increasingly uncommon, as these materials were often removed or discarded.

This bundle includes Issue 44 featuring an early memorial essay on Colin McCahon, published shortly after his death in 1987 — an important moment in New Zealand art history and a point of interest for collectors.

• Original quarterly publications
• Well-preserved, non-library copies
• Issues 44 Autumn 1987 45 Winter 1987 46 Spring 1987 47 Summer 1987–88 48 Autumn 1988 53 Winter 1989

Condition: Internally pristine across all issues. Covers show only light, typical signs of age in places, but overall presentation is very well preserved.

An excellent opportunity for collectors, researchers, or institutions seeking high-quality examples from this period.
