Description

We have a pretty impressive archive of back issues, which we use all the time for research. But somewhere along the line we lost our only copy of our very first issue. So back in MD’s 60th birthday issue, in March 2010, we offered a £500 reward to the first person who could supply us with a copy of that very first issue – Master Detective number 1 volume 1, which first saw the light of day in March 1950 as the British edition of the long-established American magazine. Now, in response to a great many inquiries from our readers, see how our quest for our own past panned out.
