Thanks Chris!

I was able to find one of my favorite issues there, April 1955.  This had the "Theremin" front cover photo and construction plans.  It also had the famous "Contra-Polar Energy" article which some readers didn't realize was an April Fool's Day article!

I'm enjoying the ads for correspondence schools, "I make 6.25 an hour repairing color TV's and so can you!' says R.E. Lee of Arlington, Virginia" LOL!
