Initially Keyhole Mystery Magazine presented a good array of the more standard mystery and detective short stories by many of the better-known mystery fiction authors, but was unable to sustain sales and folded after only three issues. It was relaunched over a year later, by a different publisher, under the title Keyhole Detective Story Magazine, with an emphasis on a more violent, fast-action, clip, heavily laced with tough and coarse characters and, above all, sex.

Literary magazine/anthology published by servicemen during the Second World War. Started as (or preceded by) a self-published booklet in 1943. Founded and edited by Peter Ratazzi until he was wounded on active service in the Ruhr. The magazine was dedicated to the "social-literary revolution" that would install a "decent society" after the ravages of WW2.

Published an early poem by Henry Treece.
