Adventure Magazine Cover

This issue of Adventure (May 18, 1921, Vol. 29, No. 4) features stories by prominent pulp authors: Gordon Young, W.C. Tuttle, E.S. Pladwell, Hugh Pendexter, Frank Richardson Pierce, Harold Lamb, Thomson Burtis, John Buchan, and Robert J. Horton. The specific story titles and plots are largely unreadable in the OCR, though the issue maintains the adventure magazine's emphasis on fiction across multiple genres—implied by the author selection spanning Western and adventure specialists. The magazine circulated bi-monthly at 25 cents per copy, with advertising occupying substantial space promoting correspondence courses (electrical engineering, various trades), typewriters, pianos, tires, and other commercial goods typical of 1921 periodical content. The editorial material reveals contemporary entrepreneurial publishing practices through job recruitment advertisements for subscription agents and magazine representatives.
