Total Pulp Experience. These exciting pulp adventures have been beautifully reformatted for easy reading as an eBook and features every story, every editorial, and every column of the original pulp magazine.
Speed Detective began in 1934 under the title Spicy Detective, focusing on fast action stories, a bit provocative... perhaps a bit too provocative. Government and industry pressure finally caused Culture Publicaions to tone down their magazine beginning with the January 1943 issue. They even changed the company name to Trojan Publications. The contents weren't the only thing to change... the title was changed to Speed Detective. The magazine, in spite of its controversial reputation, attracted a surprising variety of top authors, including Robert Leslie Bellem, E. Hoffman Price, Hugh B. Cave, Norvell Page and Arthur Wallace. The February 1947 issue was the last of this long-running series. Speed Detective now returns with vintage pulp tales, reissued for today’s readers in electronic format.
