Featuring long stories of the titular detective hero, it ran in parallel with the weekly Union Jack, and in fact long outlived that publication, lasting into the 1960s; "complete detective stories, of about 35,000 words... The same central characters - Sexton Blake, Paula Dane and Tinker - are invariably involved".

Unofficially, the 'New Look' given to the Sexton Blake Library in Jun-1956 marks the beginning of a '4th Series', widely recognised by collectors and subsequently adopted by the editor W. Howard Baker, who continued to edit the Blake '5th Series' in paperback format from Mayflower-Dell (1965 - 1968) and later in hardback. The SBL was also translated into foreign languages from the 1930s on; one edition was published in Buenos Aires as "El Neuevo Magazine Sexton Blake" in the 1940s and 1950s; other editions appeared in Norway, Sweden, Finland, Denmark, Holland, Portugal and Spain, and also translated in Hindustani.

The Shadow Magazine was the first, and arguably the best, of the "character hero" pulp magazines. Launched in 1931 it soon established a monthly schedule and then, in 1932, doubled that to a twice-monthly schedule, which it maintained for over 10 years, before dropping back to a monthly schedule in 1943. This marked the beginning of the end with the schedule dropping to bimonthly in 1947 and then to quarterly in 1948, before the magazine finally expired in Summer 1949.

In all, 325 issues appeared, each containing a lead novel featuring Lamont Cranston, "The Shadow", as well as a small number of short stories and other features. Most of the novels were written by Walter B. Gibson (under the byline Maxwell Grant) although a small number were written by Lester Dent, Bruce Elliott and Theodore Tinsley (all under the Grant byline).

Part of a series of large-size, "bedsheet" format, of magazines, issued by Street & Smith in the early 1940's, reprinting stories from The Shadow. Because of World War II paper shortages the third issue was delayed until 1947 and no further issues appeared.

Canadian reprint edition of The Shadow. From 1931 to 1936 (or thereabouts) it seems to have reprinted the US issues from 5-6 months previously, while the only issue seen in the late 1930's is a direct reprint of the US issue of the same date.

Following the War Exchange Conservation Act of 1940 which banned the direct import of US pulps, a new series started with (very poorly) (re)drawn cover art. This ran on a monthly basis from the middle of 1941 to late 1944 (at least) reprinting consecutive US issues starting from early 1941 (and thus continually falling further behind as the US magazine was publishing twice monthly during this period).
