I even found the very first issue of Top Notch the Dime Novel one in an old store several years back. Cool Stuff! JonathanJonathan G.

It started off as a dime novel in 1910 but sales were so good that it soon changed to the pulp format. I see that COMPLETE STORIES, also a Street & Smith magazine, also died in 1937, ceasing publication the same month as TOP NOTCH. Street & Smith must have decided to get out of the adventure genre completely, perhaps because of declining circulations.Walker Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16089880902426182100noreply@blogger.com
