    Redbook [Vol. 81 No. 3, July 1943] ed. Edwin Balmer (25¢, 142pp, quarto, cover by photo) []
    Photographic cover and much more like a general magazine slanted to women. Lots of departments and features (especially about the War) and masses of illustrations and photos, though still about 50% fiction. Balmer still editor and Kennicott one of the associates, but the other associate ed is Sheppard Butler. The complete novel is on lesser quality paper but not as coarse as before.

    Redbook [Vol. 91 No. 6, October 1948] ed. Edwin Balmer (25¢, 142pp, quarto, cover by photo) []
    Balmer is now editor-on-chief and Sheppard Butler has risen to Managing Editor, with Lillian Kastendike as the Fiction Editor. Kennicott is simply Advisory Editor and Don Saunders is Executive editor. Anyone know how many of these names also surface in McCALL’S? The cover photo, and slant of articles and stories makes this much more a women’s magazine.
