Magazines
Here we are compiling a list of Runnymede Meccano Guild Magazine back-issues.
We have a limited stock of original copies of some recent issues still available. Check below to see what is in stock. Second editions of issues 1 to 20 are also available to purchase online.
Magazines will be shipped to you via Second Class Mail (UK) or International Standard Airmail (overseas).
If you wish to avoid postage and handling charges, and are in a position to collect your order at an RMG meeting or other event, please contact the Secretary with your request, and either send him a cheque, or arrange for cash on delivery. Please note that if you are ordering by this method from overseas, we can accept cash (Pounds Sterling or Euros only) or cheques drawn on a UK account. Please do not send foreign cheques.
Further subsequent back-issues will become available soon.
If you’d like to receive future issues, membership of the guild includes a three issue subscription!
