Darwination Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 This is probably a long-shot. Anybody own the second issue of this one? https://archive.org/details/private-eye-v-01n-01-1959-11.-calyork-d-m I know it exists but have never seen it for sale - an oddball mag very much in the vein of men's adventure mags (illustrated fiction, "true" stories, pin-ups, cartoons) with a detective theme. This first issue is pretty scarce, but the second one is straight ghosty. FoggyNelson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you sure you (or your references) are not getting the 1959 series confused with the 1953 series, which also seems to have run two issues? I really don't know enough, but this turned up when I did a little looking. Images swiped from MCS: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don't know enough, but this turned up when I did a little looking. Images swiped from MCS: Yeah, no, that's a crime digest (interesting in it's own right, I'm on the look out for cheap copies), and this series is a full sized saddle stitched magazine. The second issue I'm looking for was published in April 1960 and looks like this (horrible image, and the only image I've ever seen, from Galactic Central): P.S. Sai from Pulpflakes (probably my favorite blog on pulp) has made this cool search tool for the Fictionmags Index: https://pulpflakes.com/fmisearch/ It's not perfect but makes finding basic publication info on a whole variety of magazines much, much easier. A little trickier to use in terms of tracking down artists and the like, but it still gets me where I need to be in the index quicker than clicking around. I use that link *constantly* Edited December 2, 2023 by Darwination OtherEric 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Dowling Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 Tough book. It's up there with Private Investigator Detective Magazine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I've seen the Bouncing Betty issue of that one for sale, but I'd have remembered if I'd seen this second issue - as I tend to like a catfight : Is it illustrated? More like a pulp or a magazine? FoggyNelson and Randall Dowling 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darwination Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 Ah, yeah, it was a mag. One copy showing at Worthpoint, somebody found a very nice edition. https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/private-investigator-detective-4648619677 Jayman and Randall Dowling 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
