                     at a front end portion providing a first front gap, in use to be in contact with a                
                     magnetic recording medium,                                                                        
                            for picking up magnetic flux of the magnetic recording medium; and wherein                 
                            a second lower yoke formed on a surface of said substrate, opposing to                     
                     said first lower yoke with a third interlayer insulating film interposed and extending            
                     at a distance behind said first lower yoke with a surface which is in contact in use              
                     with and sliding relative to a magnetic recording medium at a front end,                          
                            a fourth interlayer insulating layer formed to have approximately trapezoidal              
                     cross section at a region behind said first lower yoke on an upper surface of said                
                     third interlayer insulating layer,                                                                
                            a second electromagnetic transducing element provided on the fourth                        
                     interlayer insulating layer,                                                                      
                            a fifth interlayer insulating layer formed on the second electromagnetic                   
                     transducing element and                                                                           
                            a second upper yoke of a magnetic thin film formed along an upper surface                  
                     of the fifth interlayer insulating layer,                                                         
                            said first upper yoke and said second upper yoke being formed of the same                  
                     layer of magnetic thin film; and wherein                                                          
                            said second yoke magnetic head includes an upper yoke provided by                          
                     combining magnetically said first lower yoke and said second upper yoke, said first               
                     lower yoke and said second lower yoke opposing with each other with said                          




                     third interlayer insulating layer interposed as a gap layer at a front end serving as a           
                     surface which in use is in contact with and sliding relative to a magnetic recording              
                     medium,
