{"product_id":"popular-science-april-1961-magazine","title":"Popular Science April 1961 Vintage Magazine Yard Machines Cover","description":"\u003cp\u003eBefore cordless everything, app-controlled everything, and leaf blowers loud enough to alert three counties, there was the April 1961 issue of Popular Science promising that new yard machines could “Turn Work into Play.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe wonderfully colorful cover is packed with mid-century lawn equipment, including a leaf vacuum, lawn sweeper, sod aerator, power hoe, flexible drive machine, and even a baby bulldozer. The top banner teases “Biggest Car Crash — How It Happened,” because apparently one cover needed both suburban yard work and vehicular catastrophe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a great display issue for collectors of vintage magazines, mid-century advertising, lawn and garden history, engineering ephemera, or anyone whose garage has opinions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCondition: Well-used vintage condition. The cover and spine show significant wear, edge loss, creasing, rubbing, and old tape repairs. Sold as a collectible reading\/display copy rather than a high-grade magazine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFrom Mom’s Collection to Your Home.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Antique Dealer's Daughter","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":44135404044362,"sku":"M-0829-07","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0698\/7893\/9722\/files\/20260829_152323.jpg?v=1788047269","url":"https:\/\/antiquedealersdaughter.com\/products\/popular-science-april-1961-magazine","provider":"The Antique Dealer's Daughter","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
