Broadway Nights, August 1929
Catalog Note: Broadway Nights, August 1929 This pulp magazine contains entertainment and lifestyle content oriented toward a Broadway and popular culture audience.

"Whoopee!" by Jack Woodford, "Ice Trap" by Clinton Harcourt, "Esther's Escapades," and "Last of the Bright Lights" by Alla Bard follow. Additional pieces include "Babe of Broadway," "Must a Chorine Have a Past?" by Mary Merry, and "On the Up-and-Up" by Kelly Abbott, along with a theatrical review section "Broadway's Best Bets." The magazine also contains mail-order advertisements for novelty items, jewelry, firearms simulators, and sales representative opportunities with textile companies.
