Exciting Navy Stories [v 1 #2, Winter (December) 1942] (Better Publications, 10¢, 98pp, pulp, cover by Rudolph Belarski) [MH]


Exciting Sports Exciting Sports was the third general sports pulp from the ’Thrilling’ stable, running for 42 issues from 1941 to 1951. For the final 4 issues the title changed to 5 Sports Classics; I didn’t get these issues from the Library of Congress, so full completion of the contents of this magazine is still to be done. To begin with, Exciting Sports had ’special’ issues which had either all baseball or all American football stories; it wasn’t until later that it became a truly ’general’ pulp with stories from other sports other than these mixed in.
