Young England [1880]Country: UK
Religious paper. A continuation of Kind Words for Boys and Girls, and was thus subtitled when it launched. Commenced as a weekly, but later switched to monthly and eventually finished as an Annual (as did Chatterbox and Chums). The last volume was for 1937. In the 1880s it ran a supplement entitled Young Englanders Journal, the contents of which were provided entirely by the readers (the only item of note was a story by K.M. Eady, who won one of the many short story competitions and later became a regular contributor). Volumes 11 (1890), 13 (1892) and 17 (1896) are notable for stories by G.A. Henty, and other contributors include W.H.G. Kingston, R.M. Ballantyne, Ascott R. Hope, Dr. Gordon Stables, George Manville Fenn, Henty Frith, Rosa Mulholland, Frank T. Bullen, Fred Whishaw, C.J. Cutcliffe Hyne, Robert Leighton and Harold Avery. Later issues included the work of David Ker, Percy Longhurst, J. P. Lamb, Ross Harvey, F. St. Mars, Fenton Ash ("A Son of the Stars", 1908), T.C. Bridges and Percy F. Westerman amongst many others.

Young Folks' TalesCountry: UKTotal Issues: 546+44=590
"It was in September 1906 that James Henderson and Sons began publishing
Young Folks Tales, a series very clearly modelled on Aldine's Tales for
Little People, with which it remained in sharpest rivalry to the end.
The title was derived from Henderson's much earlier earlier Our Young
Folk's Weekly Budget (begun 1871), later known as Young Folks. The
editor was Roland Qiz (Richard M.H. Quittenton), author of the old Tim
Pippin stories, now aged 73 and retired; presumably one of the objects
was to provide some congenial and not too strenuous work for the
veteran. At the outset, indeed, Young Folks Tales differed in certain
important points of editorial policy from both Books for the Bairns and
Tales for Little People, but it was soon found necessary to re-adjust
this policy in ways that brought the series much more into line with
Tales for Little People." (Otto Maurer) Issues & Index Sources

Young Gentleman's and Lady's MagazineCountry: UKTotal Issues: 12
"The first magazine for boys and girls (as distinct from children) though Waite regards it as pretentious." (Mike Ashley) The price alone would disallow any sales outside the gentry. "Written in very old English, it contained stories and articles of an educational flavour." (W.O.G. Lofts)
