GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT MODERN BOY MAGAZINE

The Modern Boy Magazine was first published in February 1928 by the Amalgamated Press

The copyright in the magazine is presumably held by the original company or it’s successors although some 80 years have passed since first publication

and some 70 years have passed since it ceased publication

All pictures are taken from my own collection of “The Modern Boy” Magazine.

A few internal pictures have been used to illustrate the Biggles content and other interesting articles and these are deemed to be fair use.

The copyright in all of W.E. Johns work is owned by the estate of W.E. Johns as represented by his literary agent, Ms Linda Shaughnessy of A. P. Watt.

This is a non profit making fan based web site purely for the information of fellow fans - no infringement of copyright is intended.

The intention of this web site is to encourage people to collect and read The Modern Boy Magazine and particularly the works of William Earl Johns, one of the great authors of the 20th Century.

Don’t forget to visit Biggles.Com and W. E. Johns.Com for information about W. E. Johns books
