February 1967 Model Airplane News |
Aircraft modeling has undergone significant changes over the decades - both in technology and preferences. Magazines
like American Aircraft Modeler, and American Modeler before that, were the best venues for capturing
snapshots of the status quo of the day.
I have been scanning and posting excerpts from my collection of
AAM and AM, concentrating on model building articles and old advertisements. Whether you are here to wax
nostalgic, or are just interested in learning history, hopefully you will find what you are seeking. As time permits,
I will be glad to scan articles for you. All copyrights (if any) are hereby acknowledged.
Carl Goldberg models are now manufactured by Great Panes. All copyrights (if any) are hereby acknowledged.
Use the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics' inflation calculator to see what items cost in today's dollars. For instance, that $13.95 "Skylark 56" would be $90.50 in 2010 money - about right for that kit.
Here is an article from the July/August edition of American Modeler titled, "Carl Goldberg: Mr. Modeling."
