Today on Modern Mechanix

lrg_wrist_camera.jpgRecently on Modern Mechanix we looked at this nifty wrist watch camera from 1939 that holds enough film for 36 photos, an odd cure for hay fever, a shipboard kennel located in a false funnel on the ocean liner Normandie , another "compact" hearing aid that isn't so compact, a 1914 amphibious vehicle called the Hidromobile that bares a striking resemblance to a clog and a tubby, well dressed robot that can dance. From 1939 we learned what Popular Mechanics thought a stay on Mars would be like, and Mechanix Illustrated asks the frightening question: "Will Polar Waves Swamp America?" along with some awesome illustrations in case the headline didn't sufficiently scare you.
