  How about October 1954 Pop 'Tronics? (That's V1,#1) It has the
first Carl and Jerry story, and, lest I stray off-topic, to
computer-related articles, one on a CNC Punch driven by a GE
computer (model unspecified) and a model train layout run with a
*huge* panel of relays, wired to make logic decisions to avoid
collisions. It was $.25, then..... sigh.
