June 1913 Motor Magazine

[mr. fix it]

My brother dropped a copy of the Motor magazine for me to review the other day.
It has some pretty cool articles and advertisements
First article that caught my eye was on fire extinguisher equipment
It covers a lot of the aspects of modern day motoring including the latest snake oils

Snake Oils and engine performance add-on’s...

 

[mr. fix it]

Things that are needed for creature comforts while motoring along at a leisurely pace...

Finally how to recover from being blown up...

And can’t forget the humour in all of this

Awesome find, I could see myself spending hours going through the pages!
Keep it safe.

Me too.
I spent just about an hour and have more to go.
My mental endurance to read the articles is diminished more these days.

On another note, he showed me a number of Avro Arrow official file photos from our dad when it was revealed.
My dad was a mechanic for the RCAF at the time.
I'll see if I can post them too in the next day or so.
He is very protective of them...

That's great! Thanks for sharing that.

You know for shits and giggles I like to Google Maps the old addresses listed in some of these magazines. Talk about a night/day type of thing.
