    Here is a nice 1918 magazine called Milestones. I believe that it was an automotive magazine from the WW1 period. This one has heavy focus on the war, including photos from the war, why Germany will not win, the new standard Army Trucks that cannot be broken, and a short story on how patriotism can be bad when done in the extreme. It also has your typical nightmares of technology such as an odd tricycle with a propeller.
    A few ads, including some in color, and my favorite animals-- bears-- complete what was a very good read.
    Firestone Tires hasn't changed its ads much since then (not the one pictured, but a couple others in it.)
