Wanted: colour tv article scans from Popular Mechanics magazine 1st Jan 1954

Hi all. I've seen on Ebay Popular Mechanics 1st January 1954:
http://cgi.ebay.com/CBS-RCA-color-TV...QQcmdZViewItem

As I've got to watch my money at the moment as it would be costly to get this mag to Australia and it's likely to get a number of bids to a much higher price I was wondering if anyone here has this magazine? If anyone does, would any of you's possibly be able to kindly send me some 300dpi scans of the colour television articles in this mag? I would really LOVE to see them, especially the early colour TV screenshots. In return I'm more than happy to send some scans from some of my old TV mags I have if there's any articles any of you guys are after. I have:
"Television Today" (circa 1935, 16 volumes complete)
"Radio/Television News" (complete 1953 edition and 1956 edition)
"Radio/Television & Hobbies (Australian magazine, various mags from 1946 to 1965 including complete 1964 edition)

I'm also after any scans from the "1961 RCA Broadcast News WGN Color Television TV Article" if any of you's have it, this is also on Ebay too:
http://cgi.ebay.com/1961-RCA-Broadca...QQcmdZViewItem

If any of you's can help me out I'd most appreciate it.

Cheers
Troy

I have the 54 Pop Mech - it will take me a couple of days, but I'll let everyone know when it's posted - probably put it on my site so I can post high-res scans.

Notice how I sneakily linked the main page instead of the magazine page?

Newly posted:

Allen Dumont on "What's Ahead in TV";
RCA shows experimental transistorized devices "not expected to supplant the electron tube";

Got to www.bretl.com then click on "Early TV/Color TV Articles",
then on "March 1953 Popular Mechanics"
