Talk:William Clayton (publisher)

Clayton Standard:

Clayton magazines bore the following promises: ->the stories are clean, interesting, and vivid. -> the stories are purchased under conditions approved by the Authors' League of America. -> the magazines were made by Americans in union shops -> sellers were guaranteed a fair profit. -> "That an intelligent censorship guards their advertising pages."

As per Astounding Stories of Super-Science, November, 1930, ”More than Two Million Copies Required to Supply the Monthly Demand for Clayton Magazines.”

Seems that this gentleman deserves more than a one paragraph treatment. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tvleavitt (talk • contribs) 10:27, 4 December 2023 (UTC)
