An interesting magazine. Rather highfalutin' subhead ("freighted with treasures"?) I noticed all the ads seem to be aimed at adults. Did the advertisers assume the mag would be read to kids by adults, who'd see the ads? Or had they just not yet thought of targeting kids directly?

i have always been under the impression that Argosy was "fancy" sophisticated magazine for adults.

kinda like The New Yorker.
