Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. Thomas Mitchell Page, Thomas Mitchell, R. Marvin Wilcox, Charles Sarka, C. M. Relyea, Max F. Klepper (illustrator). This is a nicely preserved issue of the June 1903 "Cosmopolitan Illustrated Monthly Magazine" . There is a lot to digest in this old periodical. There is an article on gateways for residential structures, most of which seem to be fairly ostentatious and posh. As to women's fashions, "Floral Head-dresses", is illustrated with photographs of young women wearing floral things on their heads. On a more serious front, Edward Everett Hale discusses Old-Age Pensions. There is a fine article on George Cadbury's creation of Bourneville, an utopian English town. "Mankind in the Making", a serialized work by H. G. Wells, is continued. There is plenty of fiction, a smattering of poetry, and a great deal of period advertising, covering just about anything you could imagine, including automobiles, cameras, typewriters, fashion, foods, medical curiosities, and more.

Interesting Commentaries, Revealing About What Prominent Americans Thought Civilization Was (In 1930). However, The Beard Studies Omit Any Response From Any In The Great Masses Of The World Who Do Not Invent Or Manufacture, Nor Own Or Manage, The Technological Enterprises Which Are The Essence Of Technological Development, Which Is The Primary Concern Of These Respondents; Nor Has Any Study In The Succeeding 90 Years Attempted To Explore The Meaning Of Culture So Except In The Most Superficially Journalistic And Condescending Manner. But What Could Go Wrong? Aren't The Elites, After All, Elite? It Isn't Like Unprincipled Demagogues, Secure With All The Advantages Of Modern Technology, Would Incite Violence Amongst The Vast Majority, With Relatively Ever-Declining Options Ever-Declining Self-Esteem And Relatively Ever-Declining Standards Of Living. Why Bother Talking To Them To See Anything More Than Whether They Agree Or Not? And Who Will Ever Want To Read Ordinary People's Opinions When The Questions They're Asked Are Always Stupidly Closed-Ended And Never Followed Up By Why Etc.?
