The last GEM was great, especially the article about
the 50 HP Fairbanks-Morse engine found at the Mount Wilson
Observatory. I grew up in Southern California and visited the
observatory many times. Too bad your magazine doesn’t come out
monthly, as I thoroughly enjoy reading it.

I went to a flea market a few weeks ago and ran across three
Popular Mechanics magazines from 1934, 1935 and 1936. When
I read the magazines, I saw this ad in the 1936 issue for a Witte
diesel engine.
