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.
Top-notch action crime stories were the appeal of The Underworld Detective. Readers looking for pulp thrills needed to look no farther. This was an early starter among the many crime pulps. The magazine made its debut in May 1927 and lasted for a whopping 90 issues. During that time it went through three different publishers and three different title changes. It began as The Underworld, published by J. Thomas Wood. In December of 1928 it was purchased by Harold Hersey of Magazine Publishers, Inc. and the title became The Underworld Magazine. Less than a year later in October of 1929 Tom Wood of Carwood Publishing took over ownership of the magazine. In April 1935 he changed the title to The Underworld Detective. And it kept that title until the magazine folded in July of 1935. Considering its volatile history, the magazine offered an amazingly consistent high quality of detective stories for the crime buff. The Underworld Detective returns in these vintage pulp tales, reissued for today’s readers in electronic format.
