The most fascinating thing about most of these articles is the wonder over things we all take for granted today. But a significant side-benefit for me are the ads that show up on some of the scanned pages. The one on the last page of this one, for the Atlastic underwear, is priceless ... he looks VERY happy, but I suppose I would too if I was bowling in my underwear. And I note they were good enough to point out the "vital points" for us.
