I hope people find the Whiz Bang annual interesting; at least.  I can't say I think the material has aged well.

I have to wonder how well the thing sold.  One Dollar was NOT cheap 95 years ago.

No argument with either of your comments, Krac.  I do believe the material is both fascinating and worth preserving; I just think large chunks of it range from no longer funny to actively unpleasant. There are still a few good bits in there, such as the history of the magazine you mention.  Heck, I think there were even a couple of jokes that amused.

Before heading here I commented about the Annual's Editorial on the issue's page.

And thanks again to Erwin for his fun introduction to the flood found at the start of this thread.  It's always a treat to hear his thoughts on our hobby.

Take care all,

There might be a few stranglers but the 'official' Fawcett Fridays is now done.  Sorry DM.
