Nuts Magazine 11-17 February 2005 Lucy Pinder Michelle Marsh Emma Davis Lauren Pope SKU 1468

Original Nuts Magazine dated 11-17 February 2005, issued as a Special Lingerie Issue and prominently featuring Lucy Pinder and Michelle Marsh on the front cover.

This is a particularly model-heavy early Nuts issue, built around a substantial 10-page Valentine’s lingerie special featuring Lucy Pinder, Michelle Marsh, Emma Davis and Lauren Pope. The supplied photographs show that this is not simply a cover appearance: all four models are identified individually within the feature and appear across the magazine’s illustrated lingerie guide.

Lucy Pinder & Michelle Marsh

Lucy Pinder and Michelle Marsh are the principal cover models, photographed together for the Valentine’s-themed special.

Inside, the feature is headed:

“Lucy & Michelle’s Ultimate Lingerie Guide”

The photographed opening spread shows Lucy, Michelle, Emma Davis and Lauren Pope together, with the article describing the four models as taking part in a Valentine’s underwear feature. Further photographed pages include individual question-and-answer sections for the models.

Lucy Pinder has her own named section discussing Valentine’s Day and gifts, while Michelle Marsh also receives an individually headed Q&A section.

The contents additionally list “Lucy and Michelle’s holiday snaps” on page 15, giving the pair further coverage elsewhere in the issue.

Emma Davis

Emma Davis is clearly named as one of the four models in the 10-page lingerie special and is given her own individual Q&A section in the photographed pages.

The issue therefore offers considerably more Emma Davis material than a brief incidental appearance, making it potentially interesting to collectors of her modelling work.

Lauren Pope

Lauren Pope is also individually identified as a participant in the lingerie guide.

The supplied photographs show her dedicated Q&A panel, including Valentine’s-themed questions and lingerie-related discussion. She is also named directly on the contents page as one of the four women appearing in the feature.

Condition

Pre-owned vintage magazine with noticeable but generally moderate age and handling wear.

I have checked the supplied photographs carefully. Visible condition points include:

• front cover remains bright and strongly coloured
• noticeable creasing and bending around the top-right corner
• upper-right cover tip is slightly curled/folded
• some light wear and rubbing along the upper and side edges
• spine shows handling wear and small stress marks
• bottom-left area and lower edge show some age-related rubbing
• bottom-right corner has light creasing/wear
• internal pages shown remain bright, readable and well presented
• some pages display normal curvature from being opened and photographed
• edges of the internal page block show light age/use wear
• rear cover appears intact but shows minor edge and corner wear
• no obvious major writing or heavy staining is visible in the supplied photographs
• no obvious large missing sections are apparent from the photographed pages

Overall, this is a used but presentable 2005 copy, with the main condition issues being corner creasing, edge wear and normal handling associated with a magazine of this age. It should not be considered mint.

Please inspect all supplied photographs carefully, as they show the actual magazine being sold and form an important part of the condition description.

Postage & Packaging

The magazine will be packed carefully to reduce the chance of damage during transit. Depending on the final parcel size, it will be protected using sturdy cardboard packaging and/or bubble wrap, with additional attention given to the covers, spine, corners and outer edges to help prevent bending, crushing and impact damage.
