People try to sell these
advertisement pages from vintage magazines on eBay all the time - usually for ridiculous prices. It's hard to believe
anyone actually pays for them, but there must be enough to make it worth while for the seller to go to the trouble

Berkeley Models, ones frequently. Here are two other
Berkeley Models ads from the December 1954
Air Trails and July 1957 American Modeler.
Use the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics' inflation
