Found another old cover shot featuring our fascinating science. I can see many of us in this young man !

Hello Nomad, I actually found my copy by sheer chance. I was hopping around different "garage sales" with my wife one afternoon recently and one fellow had a pile of these magazines sitting on a table at $2 bucks each. I started rifling through them because they really had some nice cover art subject matter (back in the day). Low and behold there it was...and in pretty good shape !
There may be some posted on Ebay (here and there); you never know.

A nice find. Not a cover you are likely to find on a newspaper of today. It certainly takes me back to my younger days and I think the short back and sides was a mother's job in our household. I like the way the boy is shown with his socks pulled up over his trousers, a good protection against ticks. My brother still does that today!
