# Museum Catalog Note
This July 10, 1924 issue of Short Stories (Vol. CVIII, No. 1) contains fiction by established pulp authors including J. Allan Dunn and Thomson Burtis, though OCR corruption obscures complete story titles and details. The features include "The Trouble at Tres Pinos" by Dunn and works by other contributors. The interior pages are densely populated with period advertisements for consumer products and services—automobile batteries, typewriters, musical instruments, tooth brushes, medical remedies for halitosis and hernias, beauty treatments, and correspondence courses. The advertisements reveal contemporary commercial preoccupations: automotive performance, business advancement through education, dental hygiene, and cosmetic concerns. The magazine was published by Doubleday, Page & Company at Garden City, New York, with subscription at $5.00 annually. The specific plot details of the fiction stories are not recoverable from the available text.
