Vintage Scale Modeler magazines found!!

[BlackSheep214]

I was clearing out a bunch of stuff in my garage dormer... family stuff, funeral stuff of my mom, both grandmother's, my parents' school stuff, dad's Navy stuff, kitchen junk, etc...

Amongst them, I found a small stack of Sports Illustrated magazines, People magazine with Princess Di on cover, and two issues of Scale Modeler - NOT Fine Scale Modeler.
Check out the cost of the magazine... $2.95 !!! I

January 1984



December 1984




I don't know if I saved other issues of this magazine. I'm guessing Scale Modeler was later renamed Fine Scale Modeler years later. Talk about a blast from the past...

Nice find! I have a couple issues of some similar magazine in my saved stuff…

Different publishers, there is no connection between the two magazines. Challenge Publications did this magazine, also Air Classics and Scale R/C Modeler, the latter of which I wrote a number of articles for in the late 80's.
