"The Corner is a London-based print magazine that supports writers, poets and comic artists by publishing their work in a bimonthly anthology. The first issue contains 15 short stories and a bunch of comics and poetry. The writing covers a wide range of genres, from hard-boiled to comedy. The Corner is an open project where any writer is welcome to submit their work."

Circulation peaked at around 110,000 in first few years, settled at about 20,000 by 1870. Authors in early issues include Thackeray, Trollope, Sala, Mrs Gaskell, Thomas Hardy ("Far from the Madding Crowd" 1874); George Eliot, Wilkie Collins ("Armadale" 1864-66), Charles Reade, George Meredith, Henry James and, in later years, Elizabeth Bowen, Somerset Maugham, William Sansom, Evelyn Waugh. actually three consecutive series.

"One of the best of the turn-of-the-century chapbooks, distinguished both for its content and its design. Literary highlights include first American printings of Rudyard Kipling poems, Robert Louis Stevenson letters, and Oscar Wilde's brilliant "The Ballad of Reading Gaol". Of equal note are special issues devoted to the works of Eugene Field (one, an attractive reprint of the Tribune Primer and, the other, a collection of short stories), Nathaniel Hawthorne (the first reprints of articles that appeared in the American Magazine of Useful and Entertaining Knowledge) and Mark Twain ("English as She is Instructed," Twain's take on a Devil's Dictionary).

Regional magazine that published some fiction.

"The pocket magazine ranking second in circulation to Reader's Digest... its first issue, with its five-color cover, carried drawings, etchings, and color reproductions of the work of Rembrandt and Raphael in addition to fiction, articles, and photographs" (Theodore Peterson, Magazines in the Twentieth Century). This magazine, which sounds like an American equivalent of the British publication Lilliput, later toned down its "artiness" but remained popular for a couple of decades.
