Up for auction:  SATURDAY EVENING POST AUGUST 1 1953.  Cover title:  WATERMELON AT CAMP by Dohanos Stevan.   According to the cover ad- "The watermelon is the fruit of a vine of the cucumber family, Citrullus vulgaris if you want to talk Latin.  fortunately, the Citrullus family decided they could do better than a cucumber, and they turned out something with red stuffing and copious delectable juice, a triumph which inhabits North America just about now.  The watermelon contains seeds that can be flipped long distances with lips or elegantly pried out with a fork"........ There are various black and white advertisements throughout the magazine such as:  Good Year, Sherwin-Williams, BUICK Roadmaster,  to name a few! Articles consist of:  The Incredible Experiment by Harold Sinclair, The Scream From the Dark by Lucy Cores, He Wasn't Prettending by Phyllis Duganne, The Land-Grabber by R. Ross Annett, features- HOME RUN MATHEWS-THE IDOL OF MILWAUKEE, T.V's Best Idea by Maurice Zolotow,  plus many more! This magazine is in GOOD condition for it's age!  The spine is intact.  The cover has a small tear by the bottom left corner and a larger tear by the teepee but the picture intact.     The back cover has some wear stains.. The pages have curls and bends.  There is a label on the front cover. The majority of the pages are in GOOD condition!  The Saturday Evening Post was founded in 1728 and is America's oldest magazine.  The Saturday Evening Post was published weekly by the Curtis Publishing Co. in Philadelphia.  I think the cover, ads, and articles are priceless!  I can combine shipping up to 2 or 3 magazines in one mailer depending upon the thickness of the magazines.  I charge $1.00 for handling per mailer with shipment. I use rigid mailers that should not bend during shipping.  Please wait for an invoice so I can combine the magazines in the mailers to calculate the shipping amount.  If there are multiple mailings, I can send one invoice total and mail respectively. At present, I must make room in my office!  Therefore, I am selling a variety of Vintage magazines!  I inherited many magazines from my mom who had them stored in an enclosed Chestnut Window Sill all these years!  She was so proud of her magazines! In the future, I will be listing items specializing in antiques, primitives, and Vintage!  So please watch and keep in touch! If you have any questions please email!  I describe the items to the best of my ability and I am willing to accept any information anyone has to offer.   Thank you for taking time to look at my auction item.
