April 1990 Pt.3 Newtype Magazine.

My first example of a Japanese Anime Magazine from the 1990's, 'NEWTYPE' - the moving pictures magazine is still going strong today at the sum of 800 Yen (2014) - imports of this magazine vary from £12.00 to £22.00 – with a subscription including p&p, but the wealth of illustrations and full colour artwork and freebies (don't forget the Poster) and its flexibility of subject have proved its survival.

'Newtype' - the moving pictures magazine'. Published monthly by Kadokawa Shoten. Consisting of 180 pages (including front & back covers), #4 April 1990. Featuring the Manga of ''The Five Star Stories','Yotoden' & 'Marionette Generation'.
