The article presents a profile of Gazetka Radiowa published in Warsaw in 1937-1938, addressed to the youngest users of the radio, then a rapidly expanding new medium. The profile covers key aspects of the magazine's printing process, sales and marketing as well as an analysis of its content in comparison with other periodicals of this kind. An estimated fifty titles were launched in Poland in the radio guide market segment after the first issue of Przegląd Radiotechniczny went to print in 1923. While providing information about radio programmes and technology, they led the way in the transition to a new age of public communication. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article examines the geography and travel segment of the weekly Wiek Młody [Young Age], published in Lwów in 1893-1904. The material covered includes the itinerary, a specific subgenre that could often be found in magazines for children and teenagers at the turn of the 19th century. Apart from a series of quantitative and qualitative analyses of 54 texts, i.e. over 284 pages, this study also surveys the magazine's themes and narrative formats. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
