November, 1947 - Part 3 of srca1941's countdown to the DCM 5th Anniversary.
Incomplete copy missing pages 9 and 10. An unusual note about this issue is that three of the four cover features are text pieces, one of which continues unceremoniously in the middle of an ad page at the back of the book.

A huge THANK-YOU here to Eric who directly inspired GAC/DCM with his own amazing The Golden Years site way back in the good ol' days!
