Mystery and thrills... times ten! That was Ten Detective Aces. Each magazine featured ten stories of action and adventure. The magazine got off to a shaky start in November 1928, under the title of The Dragnet Magazine. Ace Magazines published this pulp containing stories of gangsters and organized crime, but it failed to click with readers. In April 1930 the magazine was retitled to Detective-Dragnet Magazine and its new focus was on detective tales. This caught the reading public's attention, and sales surged. With the March 1933 issue, the title was changed to Ten Detective Aces, and that was the title that stuck. Authors such as Lester Dent, Novell Page, Frederick C. Davis, Norman Daniels, and Emile C. Tepperman wrote for the pages of Ten Detective Aces. It lasted until September 1949, offering up detective excitement for a total of 202 issues. Ten Detective Aces returns in these vintage pulp tales, reissued for today’s readers in electronic format.
