Description
About Dime Mystery Magazine:
Dime Mystery (Book) Magazine started off as a fairly staid pulp under the name Dime Mystery Book Magazine featuring a full-length "two-dollar novel" and a few short stories. However this was not a successful formula and after only ten issues the publisher, Popular Publications, changed the title to Dime Mystery Magazine, featuring several novelettes and short stories. Even more significantly the emphasis was changed to "weird menace", which was much more popular and allowed the magazine to continue for a further 144 issues.
In 1950 the name was changed again to 15 Mystery Stories, but it lasted for only five issues under this title before folding in late 1950. A Canadian reprint edition of this latter title is believed to exist, but no issues have been seen. There was also at least 1 issue of a British reprint edition under the abbreviated title of Mystery Stories.
About the artwork:
Another Sci-Fi pulp fake cover. This time it is an old and obscure magazine.
