Mike Shayne Mystery Magazine was one of the most successful crime digests, running for 337 issues over a period of 30 years from 1956 to 1985, each featuring a novella about the eponymous detective, created by Davis Dresser (although all but a handful of the novellas were written by other authors).

Each issue contained an original Mike Shayne novella, and 15-17 short stories mainly reprinted from other Renown publications, chiefly The Man from U.N.C.L.E. and The Girl from U.N.C.L.E. although six of the stories in the 1972 issue are also original.

Despite the appearance of being an Australian reprint edition of Mike Shayne Mystery Magazine this actually reprinted stories from a wide variety of sources, and even had some original stories.

The first series is unusual because it is actually "published" in Australia for distribution in the UK. It appears to be identical to the first 12 issues of Mike Shayne Mystery Magazine (Australia) except that the issues are dated four months later (to allow for shipment to the UK, the volume numbering is changed to match the policy of the UK distributor, the covers are overprinted with "British Edition" (and the new date and UK price) and there are minor textual changes to the wording on the Table of Contents.
