Bedtime Stories

As with most of the "saucy" pulps, little is recorded about the publication schedule of Bedtime Stories. It is believed to have first appeared in November 1932 and then to have run on a fairly regular monthly basis until 1938 or so, with some additional issues in 1939/1940. The issues listed below are the only ones identified so far - there are probably others.

There are also two issues that are believed to have been part of a British reprint and a further four unexplained covers that do not seem to fit the known issues, some or all of which may also be British issues.
