    Wow! Thanks for this. When I was in grammar school I was 
an avid reader _Science and Mechanics_ and _Mechanix 
Illustrated_ .  There was another similar magazine called 
_Popular Mechanics (maybe also spelled with an X, I don't 
remember). Some of the articles were pretty hokey but I 
learned a lot from them. They were also filled with DIY 
projects and had very interesting advertising.
    The articles are interesting for themselves but also for 
the glimpse of the culture of the day.
