Seriously?


Seriously. 

Those of you who know about Periodically Anachronistic may think that this is a creation of my mind. But the truth is - you can't make something like this up.

True Medic Stories was a very real magazine, published quarterly in the 1950s and the 1960s.  It's what is inside that is unreal - a world where doctors and nurses lead glamorous lives of working together, dining together and - yes, if you can imagine - socialize after work together. 

They come up on eBay, appear at ephemera shows and sometimes they can be found in antique mall.  Happy hunting, nurse.
