Description:
Began publishing in 1915; mid-level fan magazine on par with Movie Classic and Screenland. Cost a twenty five cents an issue up until pricing pressure from New Movie (c. 1932) incited an across-the-board price decrease to 10 cents. Merged with Charm in 1941, which would later become Glamour magazine (1959). -- Anne Helen Petersen, 2013.

Look for this brand It stands for Good Books The Clatter of Hoofs— the Rattle of Wheels Down the road swings the stagecoach, and then of a sudden, some one has dropped onto the driver's seat and hands fly skyward as the gun of the bandit shines in the Western sunlight. In the twinkling of an eye, you've forgotten the dull, workaday world and are off with the hard-riding men in pursuit of the desperado. That's what happens when you take home a book that has the famous "CH" brand on its jacket — for "CH" is the mark of a good book at a ridiculously low price. Remember: "CH" books are not hashed-over reprints of old stories. Every one is fresh from the author's pen. Ask for these new "CH" titles at your dealer or send direct to the publishers.
