The Popular Magazine
''The Popular Magazine'' was an early American literary magazine that ran for 612 issues from November 1903 to October 1931. It featured short fiction, novellas, serialized larger works, and even entire short novels. The magazine's subject matter ranged over a number of genres, although it tended somewhat towards men's adventure stories, particularly in the waning years of the publication when the vogue for hardboiled fiction was strong. ''The Popular Magazine'' touted itself as "a magazine for men and women who like to read about men."
==History==
''The Popular Magazine'' initially started as a , but the editorial focus was shifted after only three issues to one of adult mainstream fiction, a program the magazine would retain for the rest of its publication run.〔"The Popular Magazine: Appreciating the 'Slickest' Pulp" by Ed Hulse, ''Blood 'N' Thunder'' magazine. Part I, No. 24 (Summer 2009) (pp. 76-100); Part II, No. 25 (Winter 2010), pp. 78-99.〕 The magazine can be considered a forerunner of the pulp fiction magazines that were prominent from the 1920s to 1950s, as it avoided more highbrow fare in favor of fiction "for the common man." Several issues of ''The Popular Magazine'' featured illustrations by N.C. Wyeth.〔''Pulp Culture - The Art of Fiction Magazines'' by Frank M. Robinson and Lawrence Davidson. Collectors Press, 2007.

Other notable writers published by ''The Popular Magazine'' include Morgan Robertson, H.G. Wells, Rafael Sabatini, Zane Grey, Beatrice Grimshaw, Elmer Brown Mason, James Francis Dwyer and William Wallace Cook.〔''The Dime Novel Companion: a source book'' by J. Randolph Cox
