Adventure Magazine, August 20, 1923

This issue of Adventure magazine (Vol. 42, No. 2, August 20, 1923) is dominated by advertisements rather than displayed fiction content in the visible text. The magazine carried instructional ads for correspondence courses (LaSalle Extension University business programs), physical training (Earle E. Liederman's muscular development course), and consumer products ranging from firearms (ASTRA automatics) and diamonds to patent medicines (charcoal lozenges, hernia pads) and mail-order entrepreneurship schemes. A notable testimonial narrative describes a man's professional advancement through I.C.S. (International Correspondence Schools) home study. No story titles or authors appear in the OCR text provided, which consists entirely of advertisement copy and promotional material.
