- PostOnce 16y agoApparently it actually goes to mid-2009.
- ascuttlefish 16y agoThanks, I edited the title to reflect that.
- ColdDruid 16y agoWho else immediately looked up their birth-month issue?
- sosuke 16y agoI'm a color junkie so I started poking around in the 1920s and it's really cool to see there have always been ads to become this or do that to make more money. Rollerblades are in this issue too.
- borski 16y agoWooo. Popular Science is all I had to read when I was a kid. It's precisely the reason I got into science and engineering. Now I have something to read for the next year :)
- surlyadopter 16y agoThis just makes me sad that as a kid I never tried to order the parts for my very own jet powered helicopter.
- mechanical_fish 16y agoI think I still own the paper copy of this one: http://books.google.com/books?id=rAAAAAAAMBAJ&lpg=PP1&pg=PP1#v=onepage&q&f=false http://books.google.com/books?id=rAAAAAAAMBAJ&lpg=PP1... Perhaps now I'll finally be able to bring myself to throw it out.
- jvandonsel 16y agoOh great. Hundreds of issues touting airships as the Next Big Thing.
- Isamu 16y agoMay 1920, p. 27: "Dare We Use This Power? Sir Oliver Lodge says atomic energy will supplant coal" ..."I hope that the human race will not discover how to use this energy," he says, "until it has brains and morality enough to use it properly, because if the discovery is made by the wrong people this planet would be unsafe."
- mozinator 16y agoHow long does copyright apply on magazines ? If the magazines are older than xx amount of years they are in the public domain, right ?
