Beginning with the next, or October issue, Racketeer Stories will be increased to 192 pages and sell for 25¢ a copy. This means another fifty-one thousand words for only 5¢ more per copy. It makes this periodical the same size and thickness as the other Blue Band Magazines: Gangster Stories, Mobs and Gangland.
Fifty one thousand words, plus the sixty-five you are now getting for 20¢, in a great, bulky magazine of 192 full pages! And only 5¢ more!
More illustrations — double and single page — by famous artists.
The same high average of complete, double book-length novels in each and every issue.
Also the fine assortment of novelettes and short stories you are accustomed to reading in the Blue Band periodicals.
Put your order in now with your nearest newsdealer. The October issue will be on the newsstands the latter part of August.
RACKETEER STORIES, like GANGSTER STORIES, believes that crime does not pay, but it also believes that these stories are not only entertaining to an immense audience but packed with knowledge. Knowledge, after all, of conditions in the Underworld, should and does help us to guard against dangers.
Faithfully yours,
