Aldine "Life and Adventure" Library

Total Issues: 3+19=22

It is thought that the original run of this title was intended to be 4 issues with "The Brave Boy of the Basilisk" as the fourth title (a registration copy at the British Library has #4 on the wrapper, subsequently altered in coloured ink to #9 of the later series).

The first four titles of the second series were originally listed as issues 4-7 of the earlier series, but eventually appeared un-numbered except in adverts where their numbers had reverted to 1-4. The series is advertised as running to 20 issues, but #19 is missing from the British Library registration run and may not have appeared (as are the newly numbered 1-3). The Deadwood Dick stories each reprinted five numbers from the Aldine Boys' First-Rate Pocket Library.

Aldine Mystery Novels

Total Issues: 28 (numbered)

Contained a complete 40,000 word novel each issue. This was almost certainly aimed at an adult audience but is included here because for the most part it shared the same authors as the more obviously juvenile series.
