Vintage Lot of 12 Mechanix Illustrated Magazines Issues 1941 - 1974 Tom McCahill

Description: Vintage Lot of 12 Mechanix Illustrated Magazines The How-To-Do-It Magazine 1941-1974 Issues with Tom McCahill car commentary Mechanix Illustrated is an American printed magazine that was originally published by Fawcett Publications. Its title was founded in 1928 to compete against the older Popular Science and Popular Mechanics. Billed as "The How-To-Do Magazine," Mechanix Illustrated (MI) aimed to guide readers through various projects from home improvements and advice on repairs to "build-your-own (sports car, telescope, helicopter, etc)." Although it featured many how-to articles, the most eagerly awaited and read features were Tom McCahill's monthly automobile tests which ran from the late 1940s to the early 1970s. McCahill's feisty opinions were delivered in a prose laced with similes that are still quoted today among car enthusiasts: "As anyone brighter than a rusty spike must know..."; flooring the accelerator pedal on a certain car is "...like stepping on a wet sponge"; the clock/tachometer combination on another car is "...about as useful as feathers on a moose." Each issue is around 150 pages - Some Illustrated Pages - Loaded With Vintage Advertising We have lots of vintage, antique, and new magazines in the store. We combine shipping if purchasing more than any one listing in the store! Included in this lot are the following issues: February 1941, Win This Taylorcraft Plane 100 other Big Prizes,February 1942 This Airplane Crosley Sedan Atlas Lathe 100 Other Prizes, June 1945 World’s Largest Airliner Model 37 to Carry 204 Passengers, March 1962 Wonder Wheel Do-It-Yourself Unit Will Drive almost Anything, June 1967, Learn To Fly Special UFOs Are Real, September 1967 What the Chief of USAF’s Project Blue Book Thinks We’ll Find Out about UFOs!, January 1968 MI Tests the Hot Plymouth Road Runner and New Miniature Carburetor, February 1968 To McCahhill Tells You the Truth About Police Cars, March 1968 Build This Mini Motor Sailer and Annual Boating Issue, January 1969 A Sauna You Build From a Kit, May 1969 The Judge Can be Bought, June 1974 We Do Economy Tests on the Economy Champs, Condition: Overall, good vintage preowned condition.
