I'm just blown away by all the "Boys" magazines....I have nearly every car magazine (American) that ever came out, starting from around 1949. I have been to swap meets all over the these continental United States, always looking to fill-in my collection or better it. I have never seen one of these magazines...! I see they date from the 30's to the late 50's. I started buying (usually) car magazines in 1954, but have never ever ran across on of these....can you enlighten us on their orign....please, as I would love to get my hands on some.

 

Mostly from the UK, and rarely shipped outside when new.

 

Great cover pic Surfer Ed,
There were a lot of Pop Science, Pop Mechanics and Mechanics illustrated covers that would fit in with the theme of Royal Shifters Thread.

 

A couple that I posted previously in the Images from Old Magazines thread:
