Inconsistent after 1911?

[edit]

We say,

"S. S. McClure was forced to sell the magazine to creditors in 1911. It was re-styled as a women's magazine and ran inconsistently in this format, with publication from October 1921 to February 1922, September 1924 and April 1925, and February to May 1926."

Apparently those dates refer poorly to gaps in publication.

There was a 5-month gap from Oct 1921 to Feb 1922, followed by resumption under new ownership and the return of S. S. McClure as editor in March 1922. From the 1922 volume 54 (copy from U Michigan viewed at HathiTrust) see:

  • May 1923 letter to U Michigan library [1] (in place of 1922 title page and index)
  • March 1922 statement by the new publishers [2] (pp. 7-8)
  • March 1922 editorial note by McClure [3] (pp. 9-10)

By the way, the latter begins "It is seven years since my name has appeared ...", which implies some change during 1915, probably, that we do not mention in the article.

In place of the quotation above, we may need

"... It was re-styled as a women's magazine [... some more information about the 1910s]. After ten years it ran inconsistently, with no issues published for October 1921 to February 1922, September 1924 to April 1925, and February to May 1926."

The underlined gaps in publication are noted in the last of 5 HathiTrust "other catalog records" linked below.

Beginning 1923 the HathiTrust digital copies cannot be viewed (public domain ends 1922), so we cannot investigate the later history from the primary source. The HathiTrust catalog record after 1923 is suggestive but does not indicate precise data; probably the HathiTrust collection is incomplete.

The HathiTrust collection is almost entirely unconsolidated. Beside the copies from U Michigan and others, complete or nearly so for 1893 to 1922, there are at least five other catalog records (none after 1918), (none after 1917), (none after 1915), (none after 1915), (none after 1914). The last three are from U California which suggests, together with the 1922 note by S. S. McClure, that U California dropped its subscriptions after SSM departed.
