DYK References
[edit]
- … that the magazine Electrician and Mechanic changed its title
sevensix times in two years (1914–1915) before acquiring its current title, Popular Science?
It was actually 26 months, the December 1913 issue to the January 1916 issue, but two years is close enough. The January 1916 issue was most likely on the newsstand in December 1915.
The publication dates and volume numbers were in several library catalogs found on Google books.
