January 1939 Boys' Life

January 1939 Boys' Life - Airplanes and RocketsTable of Contents

The Boy Scouts of America has published Boys' Life since January 1, 1911. I received it for a couple years in the late 1960s while in the Scouts. I have begun buying copies on eBay to look for useful articles. As time permits, I will be glad to scan articles for you. All copyrights (if any) are hereby acknowledged. Here are the Boys' Life issues I have so far.

A Christmas Story DVD - Airplanes and RocketsBTW, this January 1939 Boys' Life is the one Ralphie Parker is reading in the movie A Christmas Story. In the movie, a full-page Red Ryder BB gun advertisement is shown on the back cover, but the ad was a fake made for the movie. The real back cover had a Baby Ruth candy bar advertisement.
