I love this vintage book! It's a collection of Popular Mechanics articles, from 1902-1952. Published in 1952; this is a first edition of the book. Hardcover (no dust jacket), red, some wear along bottom edge and corners. Inside, pages are clean tho a bit yellowed; binding is tight.

A great, fun book -- so much history inside -- Lusitania, Our First Year in the War (WWI), Luther Burbank, Lindberg, lots of WWII, post-war home-building instructions, etc., etc.

Great for the history buff -- You? or for a Christmas present for that Husband who loves Popular Mechanics / DIY / history?

Let's discuss a trade (or cash?) -- I love vintage sewing supplies & paper ephemera (especially vintage flashcards, ledger sheets, etc.) Or what-have-you? Not a big-deal trade, just a little something in exchange.

Let's talk!
