What is The Saint Magazine?
The Saint Detective Magazine started up in 1953 as a competitor to Alfred Hitchcock’s Mystery Magazine and Ellery Queen’s Mystery Magazine. It was a digest-sized monthly publication which normally featured a Saint story by Leslie Charteris, and a few other short stories by other authors. It’s motto was “some old, some new — the finest in Mystery fiction”. It later changed its name to The Saint Mystery Magazine, and then to just The Saint Magazine before ending publication in 1967. The magazine began in the United States, but British, French, and Dutch editions appeared over the years.
