TOP-NOTCH published some good adventure fiction, had good authors and good covers like this one by Don Hewitt. It's not as well-remembered as some of the other adventure pulps, but from what I can tell, it was a pretty solid magazine. This issue includes stories by Steve Fisher, Leslie McFarlane (the original Franklin W. Dixon of Hardy Boys fame), Hal Field Leslie, Harold F. Cruickshank, C.T. Stoneham, and assorted lesser-known authors. I'd have been tempted by that cover if I had an extra dime and nickel in my pocket back in 1934.
