Item description from seller

Four original early issues of Country Life Magazine dated March 14th, 21st, 28th and April 4th 1963 featuring main articles on Forde Abbey, Dorset (parts 1, 2, 3 & 4), The Home of Mr. and Mrs. Geoffrey Roper, with 4 page write ups including black and white photographic illustrations of the Abbey, interior and gardens. Country Life Magazine commenced publication in 1897 and these early issues have become highly collectable and a valuable reference to the house owners of today, architects, restorers and renovators and anyone interested in the history of the building. They have an extensive write up with pictures of the building (interior and exterior) and garden as it was at that time. These issues are in very good condition with lovely portrait frontispieces of Miss Susan Andrew, Miss Mary Ann Parker Bowles, Miss Amanda Selway and Miss Jennifer Searle.
