Windsor Magazine

Ward, Lock & Company, Warwick House, Salisbury Square, London, EC4

The Windsor Magazine was another royalist-titled magazine that published stories in the golden years of fiction magazines. It was launched in January 1895 by the major publisher Ward, Lock & Company and folded in September 1939, at the start of the Second World War, after 537 issues.

Blampied's illustrations have been found in three issues of the magazine published in 1922-23, when his only dust jackets for this publisher were designed. I have searched 174 issues of the title from December 1912 (issue 216) to May 1927 (issue 389). I don't have any issues with illustrations by Blampied.
