My father subscribed to Popular Mechanics all during the WW-II years,
and I enjoyed later looking at all the radio articles - usually about
building something out of parts you could salvage from junked old
radios. And later on, probably about 1948, we built a one-tube radio
from plans in PM. I remember having to get an Allied catalog first
so we could order some of the parts. But soon after that the radio
section went downhill, so far as projects to build went.
I didn't see any of the magazines from back in the 1930s, must have
been interesting. Back then there were Popular Mechanics, Popular
Science, Modern Mechanix, and probably some others I'm not aware of.
