Oh, nice.
But I'm going to have to figure out how to make it cut the page size down to something that will fit on my screen.

The Gutenberg version should be rather easier to handle.

The link seems not to work. "...does not match any of the items in the Archive."
Jan 1930! I wasn't even an embryo until later that year.

Gutenberg will have straight text and html with pictures. It's probably still a couple of months off for January and more than a year for December.

I just took a look, thanks. The advertisements are the most interesting part.
Evidently the scams haven't changed much in 80 years: We have a great home-based business opportunity just for you. Just send us $25 and we'll get you started....

And $25 was a heck of a lot of money in 1930. You could feed a family for a quarter, if you had a quarter.

Judging from the January Table of Contents, the stories must be bloody awful. No wonder parents back then tried to keep their kids from reading this stuff.
