This particular
advertisement by America's Hobby Center is from pages 8 & 9 of the January 1962 issue of American Modeler

any) are hereby acknowledged. Use the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics'
inflation calculator to see what items cost in
today's dollars. For instance, that $11.95 "Veco .19 R/C" would be $91.12 in 2013 money.
