SPECIAL CHARACTERISTICS/DESCRIPTIVE WORDS:
BOATING MAGAZINES / PERIODICALS USUALLY HAD SUCH EXCITING AND BEAUTIFUL COVERS. THUS THEY MAT AND FRAME VERY NICELY FOR THE COTTAGE, BOAT + OUTBOARD COLLECTOR, PROFESSIONAL OFFICE, THE MAN-CAVE ---- AND OF COURSE ALSO THE SHE-SHED.......HAHA!
BECAUSE OF THE LIMITED AUDIENCE THE PRINT RUN OF MOST BOATING AND MOTORING PERIODICALS WERE MUCH SMALLER THAN THE "MAIN STREAM" MAGS. AND... BECAUSE OF THE NORMAL ENVIRONMENT PER USAGE THESE MAGS TOOK A LOT OF HARD "THUMBING" AND WEAR. SURVIVAL RATE WAS SMALL AS THEY WERE OFTEN PASSED FROM HAND TO HAND UNTIL JUST ABOUT DESTROYED.
COVER WEAR ON THESE TYPE OF PERIODICALS IS USUALLY TO A HIGHER DEGREE, THUS, WHEN POSSIBLE, TO LOCATE HIGHER QUALITY ISSUES THEY ARE PRICED ACCORDINGLY AND ARE VERY DESIRABLE.
Motor Boating began in 1907 as The Motor Boating Magazine. It was renamed Motor Boating and Sailing in 1970, and MotorBoating in 2000. It ceased publication in 2011.
Motor Boating & Sailing, "The Boat Owner's Magazine," was founded in 1907 as a yachting publication with the original title Motor Boating; the word "sailing" was added to the title in 1970. William Randolph Hearst acquired it in 1909 as part of his fledgling magazine operation. The legendary Charles F. Chapman, author of the seaman's bible Chapman's Piloting, served as editor and publisher for 55 years. Motor Boating & Sailing has won more than 50 editorial and design awards, more than all other boating magazines combined.
Yachting is an American luxury boating magazine WHICH BEGAN PUBLICATION IN 1907.
The monthly Rudder Magazine for Yachtsmen was first published in 1891 and ceased publication in June 1977. The magazine's founder and first editor, Thomas Fleming Day, born Somerset, England in March 1861, died 19 August 1927 at his home in Harlem, New York, was working in 1890 as a boat salesman for a shop on Dey Street in New York which also produced a catalog of nautical wares. His employer thought that “getting out a little paper” and charging for advertising space would be more lucrative than producing all those free catalogs. Mr Day obliged. From July 1977 until January 1981 (occasionally later), the name of "The Rudder" was used by Inland Sea, Lakeland Boating, Lakeland Boating/Sea, Sea, Sea (Inland edition) and Western Sea.
