Empire Magazine February 1992 Kevin Costner JFK Al Pacino Movie Cinema Vintage SKU 1514

Original Empire Magazine – February 1992, a vintage early-1990s film and cinema magazine featuring Kevin Costner prominently on the front cover in connection with Oliver Stone’s JFK.

The cover headline reads “Costner – The Shooting Of JFK”, making this an especially relevant issue for collectors of Kevin Costner, JFK, Oliver Stone and early Empire Magazine releases. The cover also advertises a major 1992 movie preview, described as an ultimate guide to the year’s forthcoming releases.

Across the top of the cover is an additional feature promoting Frankie & Johnny, with Al Pacino pictured and the wording “Al Pacino In The Empire Interview”. Another headline covers unusual and unsuccessful sporting scenes in films, alongside the magazine’s regular contemporary film and video review coverage.

The issue is a strong snapshot of cinema culture at the beginning of 1992, covering both major contemporary Hollywood releases and retrospective/classic film material.

CONDITION

Pre-owned vintage condition.

From the supplied photograph, the magazine shows age-related and handling wear consistent with an original publication from 1992.

Visible condition points include general surface rubbing and light marking to the front cover, particularly noticeable across lighter areas. There are also small scratches/scuffs, some light handling impressions and wear around the outer edges.

The corners show minor wear, with the lower corners displaying some softening/creasing. The bottom edge has light rubbing and handling wear, while the right-hand edge shows minor age-related wear.

There appears to be some light age toning/discolouration around the pale cover borders, expected for a magazine of this age. The cover remains bright and highly presentable overall, with the main Kevin Costner artwork and typography displaying well.

Please study the supplied photograph carefully for the exact cosmetic condition, as this is the actual magazine being sold.
