This stunning collection contains copies of The Strand Magazine. The Strand Magazine was a monthly magazine founded by George Newnes, composed of short fiction and general interest articles. It was published in the United Kingdom from January 1891 to March 1950, running to 711 issues, though the first issue was on sale well before Christmas 1890. Its immediate popularity is evidenced by an initial sale of nearly 300,000. Sales increased in the early months, before settling down to a circulation of almost 500,000 copies a month which lasted well into the 1930s. It was edited by Herbert Greenhough Smith from 1891 to 1930 N.B there is NO BOX or physical books included - you will receive a USB flash drive only The most Complete Library available N.B there is NO BOX or physical books included in the purchase - you will receive a USB flash drive containing the books in PDF format for use on your Computer. The colour and style of the USB drive may vary from the picture, we will send whatever drive we currently have available, a particular colour or style cannot be pre-selected. On The Drive This unique drive is an opportunity to own these rare and collectible vintage books before they disappear forever. Some of the books are already unavailable and but for being scanned into digital format would never be seen again. Each page has been scanned in as a faithful reproduction of the original. This is a chance to be able to see books that would otherwise be lost to future generations. The drive contains rare out-of-print Strand Magazine issues. Each book is individually named on the drive and thus is easily searchable by title, and each book is individually searchable itself. Be Aware - that other sellers may pad out their collection of books with foreign language titles or books that are not relevant to the topic. Compare items and you will see the quality and effort that goes into our disks. Other sellers also put security lock on the books which requires a password (which they wont give you) so it is restricted as to what you can do with the books - all our books are completely unrestricted. In addition all our books are fully named exactly as you see in the list below making them easy to find and easily searchable - other sellers may simply supply you a disk with books named randomly making it virtually impossible to find the book you want. IMPORTANT: These books come supplied on a USB Flash Drive - note that this is not a USB drive that will that will "play" on a home DVD player or TV, it contains no video whatsoever. It is a Data Drive and must be used on a Computer to view the PDF book files 32 Years of The Strand Magazine 384 Magazine Issues on Disk in 64 Volumes The Strand Magazine 1891a Vol. 1 Jan - June The Strand Magazine 1891b Vol. 2 July - Dec The Strand Magazine 1892a Vol. 3 Jan - June The Strand Magazine 1892b Vol. 4 July - Dec The Strand Magazine 1893a Vol. 5 Jan - June The Strand Magazine 1893b Vol. 6 July - Dec The Strand Magazine 1894a Vol. 7 Jan - June The Strand Magazine 1894b Vol. 8 July - Dec The Strand Magazine 1895a Vol. 9 Jan - June The Strand Magazine 1895b Vol. 10 July - Dec The Strand Magazine 1896a Vol. 11 Jan - June The Strand Magazine 1896b Vol. 12 July - Dec The Strand Magazine 1897a Vol. 13 Jan - June The Strand Magazine 1897b Vol. 14 July - Dec The Strand Magazine 1898a Vol. 15 Jan - June The Strand Magazine 1898b Vol. 16 July - Dec The Strand Magazine 1899a Vol. 17 Jan - June The Strand Magazine 1899b Vol. 18 July - Dec The Strand Magazine 1900a Vol. 19 Jan - June The Strand Magazine 1900b Vol. 20 July - Dec The Strand Magazine 1901a Vol. 21 Jan - June The Strand Magazine 1901b Vol. 22 July - Dec The Strand Magazine 1902a Vol. 23 Jan - June The Strand Magazine 1902b Vol. 24 July - Dec The Strand Magazine 1903a Vol. 25 Jan - June The Strand Magazine 1903b Vol. 26 July - Dec The Strand Magazine 1904a Vol. 27 Jan - June The Strand Magazine 1904b Vol. 28 July - Dec The Strand Magazine 1905a Vol. 29 Jan - June The Strand Magazine 1905b Vol. 30 July - Dec The Strand Magazine 1906a Vol. 31 Jan - June The Strand Magazine 1906b Vol. 32 July - Dec The Strand Magazine 1907a Vol. 33 Jan - June The Strand Magazine 1907b Vol. 34 July - Dec The Strand Magazine 1908a Vol. 35 Jan - June The Strand Magazine 1908b Vol. 36 July - Dec The Strand Magazine 1909a Vol. 37 Jan - June The Strand Magazine 1909b Vol. 38 July - Dec The Strand Magazine 1910a Vol. 39 Jan - June The Strand Magazine 1910b Vol. 40 July - Dec The Strand Magazine 1911a Vol. 41 Jan - June The Strand Magazine 1911b Vol. 42 July - Dec The Strand Magazine 1912a Vol. 43 Jan - June The Strand Magazine 1912b Vol. 44 July - Dec The Strand Magazine 1913a Vol. 45 Jan - June The Strand Magazine 1913b Vol. 46 July - Dec The Strand Magazine 1914a Vol. 47 Jan - June The Strand Magazine 1914b Vol. 48 July - Dec The Strand Magazine 1915a Vol. 49 Jan - June The Strand Magazine 1915b Vol. 50 July - Dec The Strand Magazine 1916a Vol. 51 Jan - June The Strand Magazine 1916b Vol. 52 July - Dec The Strand Magazine 1917a Vol. 53 Jan - June The Strand Magazine 1917b Vol. 54 July - Dec The Strand Magazine 1918a Vol. 55 Jan - June The Strand Magazine 1918b Vol. 56 July - Dec The Strand Magazine 1919a Vol. 57 Jan - June The Strand Magazine 1919b Vol. 58 July - Dec The Strand Magazine 1920a Vol. 59 Jan - June The Strand Magazine 1920b Vol. 60 July - Dec The Strand Magazine 1921a Vol. 61 Jan - June The Strand Magazine 1921b Vol. 62 July - Dec The Strand Magazine 1922a Vol. 63 Jan - June The Strand Magazine 1922b Vol. 64 July - Dec The Nature of Scanned Books You will get a copy of each of the scanned books in PDF format. The PDF will be a replica of the book in exactly the condition it was available to us - so that will necessarily mean that the book will have inevitable signs of ageing. Some of the books in our collection are over 400 years old - it is not possible to maintain a book in pristine condition for that length of time. In addition any marks made by the previous owners will also be present. We do not consider that to be a flaw of the product but rather adds to its authenticity. Searchable - Each file is fully named on the drive so it is easy to search and find a particular title. In addition each book is searchable and individual sections or pages can easily be printed. Viewing - The books will require suitable PDF software to view them, almost certainly you will already have this on your computer or device - if not such software is universally available for Free download. Sizing - Page size can be adjusted to suit your needs for viewing text or images. Printing - A complete book is printable, or individual sections or just individual pages too. Images - All images can be printed out and used as you wish. About the Drive The drive is not suitable for use on a home DVD player connected to your TV or audio device. The drive contains PDF files (these are electronic books) which can be viewed on your computer. You can easily convert the PDF files to a similar format suitable for viewing on your Tablet, mobile phone, Kindle, eBook reader or other device using the totally free software called Calibre. Please Note - Physical books are not included in this purchase; all books are scans of the original books in PDF digital format only. You will receive your USB drive only - there is no box included. The cost of a box plus associated increase in postage and packaging would mean the price of the item would need to at least double and we find that our customers do not value a box but rather they value the contents of our drives Shipping All items are shipped from the UK. We despatch within one business day of receiving the order, please note that whilst we can despatch purchases quickly we cannot control the delivery time it takes to reach you. For UK deliveries the standard service is second class post shipped in secure packaging. For non-UK deliveries; the standard posting method is Airmail. Please be aware that Airmail delivery times can vary greatly even within the same country, there is not a standard time and please do not expect your item to arrive within a few days - it simply will not happen. The "Anticipated Delivery" date is given by eBay , not us, and quite frankly should be totally ignored because it is not a true reflection of the reality. There is an option to have tracked international shipping (it is an option in the postage section of the listing) - tracked delivery is far more secure, it can often be quicker but is relatively expensive; we charge just for the cost of the service plus our additional time in organising it; it is entirely optional whether you make use of that service or not. Satisfaction Guarantee We feel certain you will be delighted with your purchase. If however for any reason you have cause for concern then please contact us. We are always happy to resolve any issue to your satisfaction and offer a full no-quibble money-back guarantee. We purchase many different items ourselves on eBay and understand the need for quality customer service. Please note - before contacting us with a query that the USB drive is intended to be use on a computer only (with suitable PDF reader software) - it will not work on a home DVD player connected to your TV or a "smart" TV etc. The drive does not contain audio or video files; it is a data drive with PDFs on it DELIVERY time-scale - Note to All Non-UK Buyers In 99.9% of cases we will post your international purchase to you within one Business day but after that we have absolutely no control over the speed, efficiency or effectiveness of the particular delivery service that you have selected. So please be aware of the following: 1. Anticipated delivery is set by eBay (not us) and should be ignored. 2. There is no set time for when your Airmail item will arrive. It may be 2 weeks, it may be 4 weeks (yes items can often take that long to be delivered); but almost certainly it will not be 5 days. 3. Standard Airmail delivery WILL NOT INCLUDE TRACKING – that service is available for an extra charge. Tracking will make the delivery more secure but does not necessarily speed up the delivery time (we charge extra for tracking simply because that is what Royal Mail charge us). Please form your expectations on the basis of the points raised above – the same points apply for all sellers though they may not openly say it; but we prefer to create a realistic expectation and as a result have a harmonious relationship rather than tell you it will arrive in 4 days and then have to deal with the fallout from that when it doesn’t happen. For any queries please feel free to send us a message using the eBay message system.
