I poked around the internet for you, but no luck.

The last one I see for sale was over a year ago: https://www.ebay.com/itm/285178613746
That listing long ago ended, but didn't sell.

Thanks there was one on ebay recently but they wanted outrageous prices. I paid a buck for it from my paper route when I was 13 years old. The one on ebay didn't sell either. I think it was the same one. I can't believe there are very many people looking for this. I had this magazine when I was 13 years old so it has very personal memories for me. I looked at it so much it probably fell apart. Wish I knew what happened to it... Thanks for looking. Perhaps the publisher might have archived copies ?? worth a shot....

Send the seller a message with an offer you think is reasonable.....noting to loose. If you want it, go for it and stop toying with the cost. Once gone, it is gone.

I sent two offers Not accepted and I can do without it for the price they want plus twice the freight that it would cost to mail....there is such a thing as burglary....good luck to them

Interesting question about value and what would be "burglary" for a 62-year-old magazine. Especially one in excellent condition.

this item has been posted several times over a long period, and it looks like I'm the only one in the World interested as only I have even made an offer, so my feeling is that should diminish its value. This is not an original copy of the Constitution. When does the only offer become the "best offer"? Perhaps they don't really care that it sells.... but I could be wrong....

Ah, it's the same seller that hasn't sold it? Yeah, I'd expect them to come down a bit, but I'm not sure how much given its uniqueness.

Some people just aren't very good at the selling game, though. There's a person in Waterville Valley selling a mountain bike that I messaged him a while back about...with an offer higher than he's currently dropped it to.

Good luck!
