I recently celebrated a birthday. Most people receive birthday gifts bought at a store. Because of my
chosen field of expertise, however, that's not the case. For example, my sister trekked to the Salvation Army and found a set of
Beethoven's Ninth Symphony on
78, circa 1930. Not too shabby.
My parents picked this up: a copy of the
Saturday Evening Post from September 9, 1950.

The ads really date the periodical. A black and white, 16" mahogany television set? Who needs a screen that big? But you'll love this one:

Enlarge and discuss!
