Description: September 1931 edition of The Illustrated Detective Magazine (later called Mystery) published by Tower and sold exclusively in Woolworth's department store. A well-produced slick magazine but often collected by pulp collectors for high caliber illustrated fiction. This issue features an expose on the murder of Vivian Grey, a blackmailing socialite whose murder brought down New York Mayor Jimmy Walker. Also featuring a bio page and story from Octavus Ray Cohen, a story by R.T.M. Scott and much more. Reading copy only. There is wear and creasing to the cover as well as well as pencil marking on cover and inside. Some creasing to pages inside, and wear to the spine. Still, nice, slick pages and overall in excellent condition considering the magazine is nearly 100 years old. A scarcer title, any given issue of this magazine can be very hard to find.
