ppint. 31st Jul 2021		it's an issue of supernatural stories, a mostly bi-monthly magazine, and declared as such, with issue number, (pseudonymous collaborative) editor, who was/were also the pseudonymous publisher, ''john spencer''. magazines could and can be digest format - even the reader's digest, after which the format is named - is a magazine - *shock*, *horror* news! magazines could and can also be mmpb / a-format p/b format, quarto format, a4 format, a5 format, bedsheet format, foolscap format, there've even been some issues of at least one magazine that were h/cvr format...
MICKDOOM67 30th Jul 2021		Not a magazine, digest sized PB! needs to be removed as already in Paperback book section!
