A complete issue · 200 pages · 1921
This February 3, 1921 issue of Adventure magazine (twice monthly, $4.00 annual subscription) features stories by William Patterson White, Charles Tenney Jackson, Gordon Young, Harry A. and Ellen Kyne Collings, Hugh Pendexter, L. Patrick Greene, Captain Dingle, F. St. Mars, and Chester L. Saxby. The magazine appears to be an action and adventure publication. The interior contains substantial advertising for vocational training courses (electrical work, wireless operation), medical appliances (rupture treatments, spinal deformity devices), consumer goods (diamonds, watches, shoes), and patent medicines (hair restorer, cough remedies, health systems). The visible table of contents is partially obscured by OCR noise, preventing full identification of individual story titles and plots.
Each page has its own page — the cartoon, who’s in it, and what the satire means.
