VINTAGE MAGAZINE ARCHIVE 73 RARE ISSUES - 5 DVDs! ~~~~~~~~
The Strand
Magazine was a very popular monthly magazine founded by George Newnes and
published in London, England from January 1891 – March 1950.
It was the trendiest of the ‘illustrated periodicals’ that were popular during
the late Victorian and Edwardian eras – for many years it enjoyed a circulation
of more than 400,000 copies a month.
Its name was
derived from the original offices which were situated in Burleigh Street, off The Strand, London. A typical issue
contained a mixture of serialised stories for adults, general interest
articles, and some material aimed at children. A lot of well-known fiction was
first published and serialised in The Strand
Magazine including the short stories featuring Sherlock Holmes and written by
Arthur Conan Doyle. Other famous writers whose works featured in the magazine include
H. G. Wells, Rudyard Kipling, Agatha Christie, E. Nesbitt, even Winston
Churchill. Each issue was very well illustrated with a typical magazine
containing over 100 illustrations.
