Air Progress Magazine saw its first issue hit the stands in January 1937. Initially, it was published every three months (quarterly) until 1962. In 1962, its frequency was increased to bi-monthly. It became a monthly publication in 1966. In October 1995, it changed it's name to Air Progress Affordable Flying, but reverted to Air Progress in November 1996. It ceased publication in June 1997 (Vol.59 No.2).
TRASH OR TREASURE?
The pre-1950 issues are fairly scarce and have some minor interest to aviation memorabilia collectors, but even 1930s issues sell for less than $10 each, and even then only when in "almost like new" condition. Issues from the years after 1950 are very common and can be found for sale on eBay in lots of 12 (entire year) for less than $10 (or less than $1 per issue).
