Default 137 Years of Popular Science Magazine

See http://www.popsci.com.au/announcemen...i-archive-free for 137 years of Popular Science Magazine. The old adverts, including car ads, are as much fun to read as the old inventions etc. Many interesting car related columns and articles too.

Back in 1991 in Primary School, we did a, 'In the Year 2000' thing...and the class all agreed that we'd be in flying cars...pretty much that we'd be living like The Jetsons.
