Increasing literacy rates and advanced printing technology gave rise to the pulp magazine in the late 19th century. Affordable, disposable, and commercially in-demand, the fiction magazines remained popular through the mid 20th century, and are now frequently cited by researchers as culturally and historically significant documents. Today, though, relatively few copies survive, as a result of their poor physical quality and perception of disposability. This work is a comprehensive locator of American pulp magazines in library collections. Organized alphabetically by magazine title, entries offer bibliographic data including author, volume/issue numbers, dates of publication, publisher, and a brief categorization, as well as a list of current library holdings, if any, in North America and Europe.
