Lok and Learn was a wonderful publication, full of information and wonderful illustrations. I believe it began around 1962. I regularly bought it, along with the Eagle, which some of our older members may remember. I had four bound volumes of the first issues, but my parents gave them away when I went to university. Perhaps that accounts for my insecurities.
Good luck in your search, Andre
Ed

Yes, the illustrations are very beautiful. One of my favourite painters, Fortunino Matania, was one of the illustrators.

also interesting: compare, for example, Matanias picture of "Nefertiti in her royal chariot" with Neckel's series  "Exit of Nefertiti" ...  :) .

Thank you Ed!

This publication never made it to the States, as least as far as I know. But it is online.
