The issue is called Stolen Sweets, Tempting Tales
Issued in June of 1935. Vol 1 No 2. Edmar Publishing. NY
It’s sort of a risque type of magazine for the era.
Anyone be able to give an approximate value??
I tried plugging it into bookfinder.com and got nothing except books titles Stolen Sweets.
At Galactic Central I found the complete publishing history of the magazine: Tempting Tales was a later subtitle and Edmar the third publisher, so numbering is going to be tricky.
What would it take to get a collector appraisal for something like this? I find it hard to believe that there isn’t something on the net about the value of these.
I’ve got a similar book tilted Bedtime Stories by Nat Barker vintage April of '35 by Detinuer Publishing.
According to the ads in the Mag I can purchase 3 dozen rubbers for two dollars and they even come with a five year warranty. Really.
Well if you take care of your raincoat, and don’t leave it wadded up in the back seat of the car seat on a hot day, it could easily last that long. Quite a deal!
There are some other deciding factors, like the identity of the cover artist (Can’t quite make it out on my monitor; I think Enoch Bolles was very popular) and the physical condition of the magazine (Poor, Good, Very Good, Mint). The magazine contents are, I’m afraid, completely irrelevant.
Actual nudity was kinda rare for those type magazine covers (They tended to favor lingerie and swimwear), so that works out well for you. My snap guess would be between $50-400.
