Vintage Mechanix Illustrated Magazine


Mechanix Illustrated was an American printed magazine that was originally published by Fawcett Publications. Its title was founded in 1928 to compete against the older Popular Science and Popular Mechanics. Billed as "The How-To-Do Magazine," Mechanix Illustrated (MI) aimed to guide readers through various projects from home improvements and advice on repairs to "build-your-own (sports car, telescope, helicopter, etc)." It was headquartered in New York City.


Condition: The magazine is in acceptable condition, showing light reading wear, tearing and some minor creasing to the covers. Loose pages. Given that the magazine is 80 years old, its condition is acceptable, but not perfect! The magazine pictured below is the one you will receive.
