    3SF   (about)
    SF/fantasy magazine. A fourth issue was completed but not printed.

    The Thrill Book   (about)
    While contemporary statements of intent indicate that this magazine was originally intended to have a heavy fantasy orientation, in actuality its fantasy content is probably not much higher than most contemporary adventure fiction magazines, and varies considerably from issue to issue. Its overblown reputation caused its inclusion in several previous indexes and the repetition of that data here seems unavoidable.

    A number of stories were left over when The Thrill Book died. Apparently these stories were pulled out every few years and circulated to other Street & Smith editors in an attempt to get them into print. This seems to have been successful only once: “Dead Hands on the Wheel” by Denby Brixton eventually appeared in the March 1942 issue of The Avenger. The rest of the inventory survives in the S&S collection at Syracuse University. “As It Is Written” by De Lysle Ferée Cass was found there in the late 70’s and misidentified as the work of Clark Ashton Smith. It was published under Smith’s byline as a hardcover by Donald M. Grant in 1982.

    For an extremely detailed analysis see Richard Bleiler’s excellent study, The Annotated Index to The Thrill Book, Starmont, 1991.

    Thrill Shorts   (about)
    Small pamphlet magazines issued just after the end of the Second World War when paper rationing was at its height.

    • Publishers:
      • Gerald G. Swan, Ltd.: Thrill Shorts.

    The Thriller (US, 1916)   (about)
    The Thriller is an obscure magazine made up of unsold issues of The Black Cat. The one issue that has been examined is number four. At this time it has been impossible to ascertain how many issues of The Thriller were published. A 1916 issue of The Black Cat contains an ad for The Thriller (probably #1) containing the August through November 1915 issues of The Black Cat.

    • Publishers:
      • Cassino Publishing Company; Salem, MA: The Thriller.
