Original UK FHM Magazine from September 2006, with Eva Longoria as the main cover star. This is a substantial mid-2000s issue combining celebrity photography, interviews, fashion, entertainment, humour, lifestyle features and the magazine’s characteristic editorial style from the period.

The main cover is dominated by Eva Longoria, promoted with the headline “Desperately Seeking… Eva! The housewife from heaven!” Her feature is directly connected with her prominence in Desperate Housewives, making this issue particularly relevant to collectors of Eva Longoria and 2000s television memorabilia.

The contents pages confirm a sizeable Eva Longoria cover story beginning on page 108, described as a feature in which she discusses various subjects associated with her life as one of the best-known stars of Desperate Housewives at the time.

Featured Women & Celebrity Content

Several other named personalities are prominently featured inside:

Danielle Lloyd – page 70
Featured under “The Girls of FHM”, with the contents describing her as the newly crowned Miss Great Britain and presenting a dedicated pictorial feature.

Danielle Brent – page 92
The former Hollyoaks and Bad Girls actress receives her own feature, making this issue relevant to collectors of British television and glamour-magazine appearances.

Zaraah Abrahams – page 20
Another television-related feature appearing prominently in the opening section of the magazine.

The issue also contains additional lifestyle and reader-based features including Hot Dates on the Sofa, Ladies’ Confessions, and the magazine’s regular entertainment material.

Eva Longoria Cover Feature

Eva Longoria is very clearly the central collectible attraction of this issue. The cover photography uses a dramatic black outfit against the dark FHM design, with the oversized red masthead behind her.

The interior contents imagery shows a separate glamorous photograph of Eva and identifies her feature as one of the magazine’s principal cover stories.

For collectors, this issue sits firmly within the period when Desperate Housewives was one of the biggest television programmes internationally, making the Eva Longoria cover particularly representative of mid-2000s popular culture.

Harry Shearer / The Simpsons

Another significant feature is an interview with Harry Shearer, promoted on the cover with the headline:

“Otto Must Die!”

The contents describe Shearer as “The voice behind The Simpsons’ main characters”, with discussion surrounding the programme and his extensive voice work.

This gives the issue additional interest for The Simpsons collectors, television memorabilia collectors and fans of Harry Shearer.

Poker Feature

A sizeable World Series of Poker feature is included, promoted strongly on the front cover as:

“Poker Masterclass! Step-by-step guide to winning the World Series!”

The contents place the feature around page 114 and present it as a practical guide covering poker strategy and the World Series of Poker.

The Sopranos

The magazine also contains a substantial The Sopranos feature titled:

“Taking Care of Business”

The contents describe it as involving four Sopranos wise guys speaking words of wisdom, beginning around page 98.

This gives the magazine additional appeal to collectors of classic HBO television and The Sopranos memorabilia.

32-Page Fashion Special

The front cover prominently advertises a 32 Page Fashion Special, and the contents show a dedicated fashion section covering:

Trends
Clothing labels
Buyers guides
Grooming
Everyday style
New looks and fashion advice

This adds a substantial period-fashion element and gives an interesting snapshot of 2006 men’s fashion and grooming trends.

Condition

Pre-owned vintage magazine with noticeable age and handling wear. Please inspect the supplied photographs carefully.

The most significant visible condition issue is at the bottom-left corner of the front cover, where there is clear creasing, tearing/splitting and paper loss/wear around the corner and spine area.

Further visible condition points include:

Heavy wear to the bottom-left front corner
Small tears/splits around the lower spine/front-cover junction
Creasing around the damaged lower-left area
General spine rubbing and edge wear
Noticeable wear along the bottom edge
Bottom-right corner wear and creasing
Light wear to the upper corners
Small edge knocks and rubbing
General surface scuffs and scratches across the dark front-cover areas
Fine handling marks visible under direct light
Some rubbing to the printed gold and black areas
Minor page/cover waviness consistent with storage and use
Back cover/spine area shows additional age-related rubbing and edge wear
Interior pages shown appear generally clean and readable
Magazine remains intact and usable despite the external wear

The copy has clearly been read and handled, and the lower-left front corner damage is particularly important for buyers to note. It should therefore not be described as mint, near mint or excellent.

Overall, this is a well-used but complete-looking collectible reading copy, with strong interior content and an attractive Eva Longoria cover despite the external wear.
