It primarily contains articles about science, geography, history, and world culture. Initially the publication was primarily text-orientated; however, following the January 1905 edition wherein full-page pictures of Tibet featured, the magazine began featuring the extensive photographic and pictorial content for which it has become famous.

On The Disk This unique disk is an opportunity to own these rare and collectible vintage books before they disappear forever. Some of the books are already unavailable and but for being scanned into digital format would never be seen again. Each page has been scanned in as a faithful reproduction of the original or is a facsimile of the text. These books are electronic versions of the originals. This is a chance to be able to see books that would otherwise be lost to future generations. The disk contains rare out-of-print books relating the National Geographic magazine. Each book is individually named on the disk and thus is easily searchable by title, and each book is individually searchable itself. Be Aware - that other sellers may pad out their collection of books with foreign language titles or books that are not relevant to the topic. Compare items and you will see the quality and effort that goes into our disks. Other sellers also put security lock on the books which requires a password (which they wont give you) so it is restricted as to what you can do with the books - all our books are completely unrestricted. In addition all our books are fully named exactly as you see in the list below making them easy to find and easily searchable - other sellers may simply supply you a disk with books named randomly making it virtually impossible to find the book you want.

It is a Data DVD and must be used on a Computer to view the PDF book files 47 Volumes / 350 Magazine Issues on Disk (1888 - 1922) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 1 Oct 1888-Oct 1889) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 2 April 1890-April 1891) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 3 March 1891-Feb 1892) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 4 Mar 1892-Feb 1893) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 5 April 1893-Jan 1894) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 6 Jan 1894-May 1895) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 7 Jan-Dec 1896) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 8 Jan-Dec 1897) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 9 Jan-Dec 1898) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 10 Jan-Dec 1899) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 11 Jan-Dec 1900) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 12 Jan-Dec 1901) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 13 Jan-Dec 1902) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 14 Jan-Dec 1903) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 15 Jan-Dec 1904) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 16 Jan-Dec 1905) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 17 Jan-Dec 1906) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 18 Jan-Dec 1907 The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 19 Jan-Dec 1908) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 20 Jan-June 1909) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 20 July-Dec 1909) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 21 Jan-June 1910) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 21 July-Dec 1910) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 22 Jan-June 1911) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 22 July-Dec 1911) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 23 Jan-June 1912) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 23 July-Dec 1912) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 24 Jan-June 1913) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 24 July-Dec 1913) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 25 Jan-June1914) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 26 July-Dec 1914) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 27 Jan-June 1915) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 28 July-Dec 1915) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 29 Jan-June 1916) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 30 July-Dec 1916) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 31 Jan-June 1917) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 32 July-Dec 1917) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 33 Jan-June 1918) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 34 July-Dec 1918) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 35 Jan-June 1919) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 36 July-Dec 1919) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 37 Jan-June 1920) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 38 July-Dec 1920 The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 39 Jan-June 1921) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 40 July-Dec 1921) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 41 Jan-June 1922) The National Geographic Magazine (Volume 42 July-Dec 1922) The Nature of Scanned Books You will get a copy of each of the scanned books in PDF format. The PDF will be a replica of the book in exactly the condition it was available to us - so that will necessarily mean that the book will have inevitable signs of ageing. Some of the books in our collection are over 400 years old - it is not possible to maintain a book in pristine condition for that length of time. In addition any marks made by the previous owners will also be present. We do not consider that to be a flaw of the product but rather adds to its authenticity. Searchable - Each file is fully named on the disk so it is easy to search and find a particular title. In addition each book is searchable and individual sections or pages can easily be printed. Viewing - The books will require suitable PDF software to view them, almost certainly you will already have this on your computer or device - if not such software is universally available for Free download. Sizing - Page size can be adjusted to suit your needs for viewing text or images. Printing - A complete book is printable, or individual sections or just individual pages too. Images - All images can be printed out and used as you wish. About the Disk The disk is not suitable for use on a home DVD player connected tour TV or audio device. The disk contains PDF files (these are electronic books) which can be viewed on your computer. You can easily convert the PDF files to a similar format suitable for viewing on your Tablet, mobile phone, Kindle, eBook reader or other device using the totally free software called Calibre. Please Note - Physical books are not included in this purchase; all books are scans of the original books in PDF digital format only. You will receive your disk in a protective sleeve - there is no box included. The cost of a box plus associated increase in postage and packaging would mean the price of the item would need to at least double and we find that our customers do not value a box but rather they value the contents of our disks Shipping All items are shipped from the UK. We despatch within one business day of receiving the order, please note that whilst we can despatch purchases quickly we cannot control the delivery time it takes to reach you. For UK deliveries the standard service is second class post shipped in a secure cardboard CD mailer. For non-UK deliveries; the standard posting method is Airmail. Please be aware that Airmail delivery times can vary greatly even within the same country, there is not a standard time and please do not expect your item to arrive within a few days - it simply will not happen. The "Anticipated Delivery" date is given by eBay , not us, and quite frankly should be totally ignored because it is not a true reflection of the reality. There is an option to have tracked international shipping (it is an option in the postage section of the listing) - tracked delivery is far more secure, it can often be quicker but is relatively expensive; we charge just for the cost of the service plus our additional time in organising it; it is entirely optional whether you make use of that service or not. Satisfaction Guarantee We feel certain you will be delighted with your purchase. If however for any reason you have cause for concern then please contact us. We are always happy to resolve any issue to your satisfaction and offer a full no-quibble money-back guarantee. We purchase many different items ourselves on eBay and understand the need for quality customer service. Please note - before contacting us with a query, the disk is intended to be use on a computer only (with suitable PDF reader software) - it will not work on a home DVD player connected to your TV. The disk does not contain audio or video files; it is a data disk with PDFs on it DELIVERY time-scale - Note to All Non-UK Buyers In 99.9% of cases we will post your international purchase to you within one Business day but after that we have absolutely no control over the speed, efficiency or effectiveness of the particular delivery service that you have selected. So please be aware of the following: 1. Anticipated delivery is set by eBay (not us) and should be ignored. 2. There is no set time for when your Airmail item will arrive. It may be 2 weeks, it may be 4 weeks (yes items can often take that long to be delivered); but almost certainly it will not be 5 days. 3. Standard Airmail delivery WILL NOT INCLUDE TRACKING – that service is available for an extra charge. Tracking will make the delivery more secure but does not necessarily speed up the delivery time (we charge extra for tracking simply because that is what Royal Mail charge us). Please form your expectations on the basis of the points mentioned above – the same points apply for all sellers though they may not openly say it; but we prefer to create a realistic expectation and as a result have a harmonious relationship rather than tell you it will arrive in 4 days and then have to deal with the fallout from that when it doesn’t happen. For any queries please feel free to send us a message using the eBay message system.
