Ace-High (Western) (Stories) Magazine

The magazine was revived five months later by Dell Publishing, who retained the magazine name but shifted the emphasis heavily to Westerns (the tag-line on the magazine cover changed from "Western, Action and Sports Stories" to "Western! Action! Adventure!"). However, this version lasted for only 15 issues before the magazine folded again in January 1935.

The title was then picked up by Popular Publications in August 1936, who further emphasized the Western content by renaming the magazine to Ace-High Western Magazine and by adopting the yellow background on the cover that was synonymous with Westerns at the time. It also restarted the issue numbering at v1 #1. Bizarrely, however, after only seven issues under this name, the title reverted to Ace-High Magazine and after a further eight issues seems to have reverted to the issue numbering of the original magazine.

The covers, however, stayed in the same bright yellow "Western" pulp style as before, and by March 1939 the cover title clearly read Ace-High Western Stories Magazine. Six months later the magazine again folded, although only briefly this time. In February 1940 it was launched yet again, starting again at v1 #1 but now under the name Ace-High Western Stories Magazine and published by Fictioneers, Inc. (a division of Popular Publications), continuing as such for a further eleven years until it finally merged with .44 Western Magazine in 1951.

British and Canadian reprint editions exist for the magazine.

My thanks to Edward P. Berglund for clarifying the history of the first series of this magazine.
