Magazine / Periodical
Soft cover. Condition: VG. Light gauge paper, pictorial printed wraps, sized about 11 x 15 1/2 inches, profusely illustrated including an abundance of advertisements. Covers bright and clean but for a bit of discolored rubbing along gutter, and minor toning at edges. Contributors include Charles H. Plummer (Through The Mirror, complete), Eleanor Mercein Kelly (The Privateer, Chapters I - III), Otho B. Senga (The Second Reinforcement, complete), Don Mark Lemon (The Poet, The Burglar And The Baby, complete), Alice and Claude Askew (At Cross Purposes, Chapters IV - VI, with a synopsis of previous chapters), Andrew Loring (The Tragedy In The Tower, chapters XIII - XIV, with a synopsis of previous chapters), L. G. Moberly (Christina, Chapters XV - XVII, with a synopsis of previous chapters), and Mark F. Wilcox (Found Gold, complete). From 1869 - 1942, over 70 years, Augusta, Maine was America's mail - order magazine publishing capital with some seventeen titles published there and circulation at its height reaching an estimated three million copies. Magazines were mailed to subscribers nation - wide, and the sheer volume of sales led to the opening of a new post office in January, 1890. The major publications targeted women, particularly women in rural areas, but some also included articles and stories of interest to men and children. Farm and literary magazines were other types published in Augusta. The primary focus for the majority of the magazines was family and home life, and content included down - home advice on family life, decorating, business (raising chickens, for example), personal care, health, fashion, and the latest trends. Reading material included poetry, romantic fiction, short stories, and editorials, but most prominently the magazines offered opportunity (and encouragement) for women to buy the various and sundry items advertised. Contests and competitions were part of the allure, and subscription rates were very cheap (and often not even collected) as the magazines were supported well by the advertisements. The major publishers, E. C. Allen, P. O. Vickery and John F. Hill (who later became Governor of Maine), and William H. Gannett all became very wealthy. Publications included Good Stories, Happy Hours, Hearth and Home, American Woman, Needlecraft, and Farm World, all by Vickery - Hill Publishing Company, Comfort, by Gannett, which was the most successful of the magazines, Fireside Magazine, Peoples Illustrated Journal, the Illustrated Family Herald, Thrifty Farmer, Farming World, National Farmer, Golden Moments, Sunshine, Daughters Of America, and Practical Housekeeper, all by Allen, and later Gannett who took over Allen's publications in 1891. Some of the magazines including the present number were oversized, newpaper - style, and printed in quadruple columns, on cheap paper that did not hold up over time and use, thus, copies are relatively scarce, especially the early issues. Worldcat / OCLC locates only 5 repositories. See Zuckerman, A History Of Popular Women's Magazines In The United States, 1792 - 1995.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. 1st Edition. (1951), 340pp. VG in G, lightly chipped dj which has a half inch open tear at the top of the backstrip. Eleanor Mercein Kelly, (1880-1968), was born in Wisconsin and moved to Louisville, Kentucky in 1901 when she married. She wrote three novels set in Kentucky, which gathered little praise, but served as an apprenticeship for her well respected later novels, particularly the so-called Basque trilogy. Her interest in that part of the world was fueled by the fact that she had traveled widely in Europe and that her father's side of the family came from the region of the Pyrenees along the French-Spanish border and were of Basque origin. This, her last novel, grew out of a trip she made to Hungary before World War II. See William S. Ward: A Literary History of Kentucky.
