Magic Catalogs are by their very nature ephemeral and meant to be used for the time of current release then discarded to be replaced by more recent issue. It is the challenge of the Collector to locate and secure the surviving catalogs whose sole purpose was to enchant and entice the reader to the point of desire dreaming if you will of owning the described items within. It is not uncommon with catalogs to find perhaps corner folds or check marks or marginal notations and light soil. Exceptional condition is given. There is much pleasure to be had making discoveries within the catalogs you collect. I enjoy it and I hope you do as well.
