Toronto: Star Weekly, 1953. First appearance of this complete romance novel, issued as the special Saturday edition of the Toronto Star Weekly on 28 March 1953. Very good. Item #45038 The strategy of publishing entire novels in the form of newspapers goes back at least as far as the 1830s, when American publishers reacted to an economic depression in part by publishing Weeklies — novels printed on huge folio sheets
