Argosy All-Story Weekly, March 17, 1928
Argosy All-Story Weekly (March 17, 1928) This issue contains four serialized stories: *Gold* by Kenneth Perkins (five-part serial, part one) follows the ill-fated crew of the whaling ship *Cape Cod* in 1847, where superstition and desperation spread among sailors. The narrative opens with the arrival of Priscilla Bartlett, a young woman aboard the vessel, whose presence disturbs the crew. *The Rhinestone Helmet* by Rebecca N. Porter (three-part serial, part two), *The Coast of Blue* by Fred MacIsaac (five-part serial, part three), and *Whoopee McGee* by John Holden (four-part serial, part four) continue ongoing storylines. The novelette *Luck of the Border* by Charlton L. Edholm completes the fiction, while three short stories by James W. Egan, Ben Conlon, and Albert William Stone round out offerings. Verse contributions include poems by Harvey Kelly Wilson, H. A. Woodbury, and others. Advertisements predominate, featuring employment opportunities, mail-order goods, and a prize puzzle contest.
