The Sovereign Magazine

Total Issues: 88

All-fiction magazine. Initially most stories were light or humorous (e.g. Ruby M. Ayres) but with a dash of zest now and again (courtesy of Achmed Abdullah and also ran the six "Tarzan the Untamed" stories). Although some issues had no weird fiction at all, other issues featured a lot, especially after Hutchinson's deal with Macfadden when he began reprinting from Ghost Stories (including the posed photographs) as well as material from Weird Tales. Some issues (Oct-1924, Nov-1925, Jan-1927, Feb-1927) are nearly all weird-supernatural or weird-mystery; absorbed The Regent Magazine, May-1925 (and for that one issue was called Sovereign and Regent Magazine) and replaced by The Jolly Mag. in May-1927.
