All Story Braille Magazine

Initially published only in Braille, the magazine lived up to its name by containing mainly fiction reprinted from other magazines. With the change of name in 1957 to Braille Monitor the focus shifted to mainly non-fiction with the occasional story when time allowed, and from Jan-1958 a simultaneous print version was also published.
