In the 1940s and 1950s, Australian pulp fiction jostled with magazines and comics at newsstands.

In this seminal work, the third in the National Library's popular 'Collector's Book' series, Toni-Johnson-Woods reveals the history, the authors, the genres and the lurid covers of this once-popular literary form.
