I’ve had the paper carbon-dated by the fine folk at the Gutenberg Museum and it’s definitely last millenium – probably even dating back to the late 1960’s. Unburned hydrocarbon particles place it somewhere in California, so I’d hazard a guess and say “Road & Track”.

Even better – well, maybe just mildly interesting – are the prices for the boys’ toys stuff.
Bell racing helmets for $49. Major investment back then – in 2006 dollars, that would be around 250 bucks.

And who wasn’t just the bee’s knees, with their open-backed imported British leather driving gloves for $9.95….?

Those were the days.
