Cavallino magazine

Before I throw it away, I'll offer it up here.

 

Great, interested in early Cavallinos, Prancing horse, FML and some AQ issues. Will pay. Thanks in advance.

 

Nothing like that. Old R&T, C&D, motorcycle stuff...

 

Ah ok.

 

Well since this is about Cavallino you still can't actually purchase the newest issue #251 from them. Yet the last issue #250 has increased a further six dollars already to twenty dollars. They do have some nice pictures of the new cover for #251 if you are renewing or sending a gift subscription etc. ...

 

I still haven’t received my copy and I’m in the U.S.,……..in the hemisphere from which it is presumably shipped.

 

Italy. Not USA.

Marcel is that why the single copy selling price has doubled from 10 to 20 dollars for the current issue vs the old style of issue number 249?

 

Do you mean the magazine is being shipped from Italy now?

 

What do you consider early?


Thanks

 

My oldest Cavallino is I think #11

Any issue below #100 IMO is "early".

If anyone is interested I can inventory my stack, Have a few slipcases too.

 

I would be interested!

 

Yes.
At least where my copy came from.

Cannot answer this question, sorry.
You may want to ask the current people in charge. Good luck.

Certainly before 100 and really before I started (#72). But i have a crazy week ahead and won't have time to do an inventory of which Cav issues I have. I know I have spares as well.

Back on here in a couple of weeks hopefully.

 

Down here (from SC to FL) Books a Million has the best stocked magazine section I've seen. Last of the old school real live book stores.

Unfortunately, the hurricane has temp closed all my local stores. I'm guessing 7' of water and thousands of paper based products didn't mix well.

Have any US subscribers here received #251 yet?

 

Not yet. I am in Virginia.

 

Michigan, not yet.

 

Marcel has had his for almost two weeks and typically he mentions slow delivery of periodicals in Switzerland. He also mentioned that his copy was mailed from Italy. I wonder if part of Canossa’s consolidation of control also includes shipping from there, which seems unlikely. My understanding is that the editor, Massimo Delbò, resides in Italy so anything is possible I suppose.

 

Cavallino has a printer in Italy and a printer in the US. Issues ship out from both depending on final destination.

 

Thanks. That makes sense. I didn’t realize they had enough European subscribers to make that worthwhile.

 

From the beginning European readers have constituted a very strong percentage. Just look at the letter section in any old issue.

 

Have now read 250 and it will be the last issue I purchase. Enjoyable enough read and quite liked the layout etc of the magazine but not at nearly £20 an issue including postage. It's a £5 to £7 item to me.
