I had no intention to write yesterday on My Forgotten Hobby V, but when I saw this I was transported back in the 1950s.
This is what I posted on My Forgotten Hobby II a long time ago.
…
Little did I know back then…
The year is 1959 or 1960. I was playing in the alley behind the apartment building where I was living on Davidson Street in Montreal. There were some Popular Science magazines in the garbage. I picked them up and looked into them.
The January 1944 issue was like having an epiphany…
It was my first encounter with the P-51A, and there were lots more fighter planes I had never heard about except the Spitfire. In 1958 I was 10 years-old. So what does a 10 year-old kid do?
Cut the pages up? Of course I did!
Fast forward 63 years later…
