MUNSEY'S MAGAZINE

MUNSEY'S MAGAZINE
   US magazine published by the Frank A. MUNSEY Corp.; ed Richard H. Thitherton (with Robert Hobart Davis as fiction editor) and others. Appeared from 2 Feb 1889 as Munsey's Weekly, then as MM Oct 1891-Oct 1929, when it merged with Argosy All-Story Weekly (The ARGOSY) to form 2 magazines, Argosy Weekly and All-Story Love Tales.Although MM was contemporary with The ALL-STORY it published little sf, and that little was not of any lasting quality. Most notable was its publication of stories by E.F. BENSON, Ray CUMMINGS, George Allan ENGLAND and Sax ROHMER. It also published the borderline-sf The Green Ray (1922-3; 1924) by VanceTHOMPSON.
