Oh well, now that I went and looked, I realize I must have been wrong about the page numbering. It must have been some other magazine that did that. Lot's of pages in that magazine way back then. 35 cents.
In Texas, in 1963 35 cents could buy almost 3 gallons of gasoline, maybe more, depending on where in Texas a person was at.

In 1963, the quarter and dime that made up the 35 cents were silver — Take a beat up 1963 quarter and dime to any pawn shop and you’re going to get a lot more than 35 cents just for the melt value, possibly enough to buy 3 gallons of gas.
