Beyond the Pulps:
The Slicks: Non-Mystery Magazines

• Collier's

• The Saturday Evening Post
  (1821-1969)
  Started in Philadelphia in 1821, The 'Post was the first general magazine in the country to achieve enduring life. It finally folded in 1969, but was almost immediately revived as a folksy magazine, rather like a large-format Reader's Digest,with less explicitly right-wing politics. While this new version published some criminous fiction in its early years, such as Isaac Asimov's "Light Verse," it's mostly fictionless these days.
  Contributors (pre-1969) included: Octavius Roy Cohen
