2 Book Mystery Magazine (about)

Although implying that it reprinted two full-length, published, novels in each issue, to compete with other similar magazines on the newsstand, 2 Book Mystery Magazine actually reprinted novelettes from other pulps, particularly Private Detective Stories and folded after only two issues.
