Weekend Onesie:
Front Page Detective!
I do believe these people invented salaciousness!
I adore these covers and their taglines - every one a winner. Every cover? I don't know why, but I can't help but imagine our own Miss Maddie gracing every cover!
Brought to you by the good folks at Dell Publishing (it was even a television program in 1951 on the Dumont network), as magazines go, Front Page Detective had a long shelf life. It's rather fun to look as the covers change with the times. Those 1970s issues! They ditched the glamor and went with the clamor - yes, fear mongering was indeed in vogue. Still, the taglines remained what hooked readers hungry for the gritty details.
Enjoy this small sampling from the magazine that put the 'dirty' in dirty deeds done cheap!
Another weekend.
Another June.
The season and I, are happily in tune.
