Hi Everyone,

I recently purchased 'Archive Vol 2 D51'

The magazine costs 1905 yen and is published by Neko Publishing Co Ltd, in Japan.

The publisher linked to Amazon Japan. Whilst the current exchange rate means purchases are more attractive Amazon charge a flat rate for post which for a single item is very expensive. I bought other magazines which averaged the postage cost.

It looks as though the magazine was released around October 2013 and contains endless amounts of black and white images of class D51 mainly in the 1970s.

Excellent reference material. No idea if available in the UK.

regards
Dennis

Hi Andy,

Yes a large amount of D51 images with a small number of c62.

But the postal charge maybe an issue on small orders. Excellent delivery, ordered 22nd Dec delivered
27th. DHL and being magazines no duty.

Regards

Dennis

Hello Dennis,

Thanks for the heads up on the magazine. I found the website (link below) but how did you order it. The page is in Japanese including check out.

Best regards,

Hello Dennis,

Never mind, I found the "View this in English" in the upper right.

Hi Mark,

Yes you can use the English page. Lots of other magazines also covering the D51 if you search. However as i mentioned previously shipping can be expensive for a single magazine. I have an interest in Classic/Vintage motorcycles and Amazon Japan has proved excellent especially as you only pay cover prices. Therefore I have been able to dilute the shipping cost per magazine.

regards

Dennis
