5) Business Week Magazine Issues April - June 1962 (Hardbound)

1962. Back issues bound in brown hardcover with gilt lettering to the spine. Covers show wear and soiling, contents (issues) are good. A nostalgic look back at an important year and a new decade that would see tremendous change. It was an election year and Kennedy was the front runner at the time of these publications. Coca Cola was making the switch from bottles to cans. American businessmen in Cuba were worried about what Castro was going to do. Che Guevara was in the news. Airline companies were introducing new jet aircraft for passenger travel amid concerns of too many seats in the air. Bikinis were coming to US beaches. Khrushchev was causing trouble from Russia. A lot of this sounds familiar today! All these stories and much, much more in the pages of these back issues. Many vintage advertisements for cars, office equipment, oil companies, and many more business-related products. As much history as these old issues offer, they are also just fun to look through. .
