Popular Mechanics, one of the foremost magazines that bring science, technology and, best of all, really cool stuff into the consciousness of the general public was first published on this date on 1902.



The item depicted here is the cover of the October 1946 issue of the magazine. This issue is said to include articles on atomic power, luxury ships and planes and underground fortresses.
