Each listed above is of at least one page, most average 3 pages. Some are original articles. ALSO in this issue: the usual great tidbits, jokes and sidebars that Readers Digest was famous for. Starting in 1955, issues also include terrific vintage ADS! (PLUS there is more actual CONTENT in these vintage issues than in the current ones!)
