Issues of Jungle Stories, showing volume and issue number.

Underlining indicates that an issue was titled as a quarterly (e.g. "Fall 1949") rather than as a monthly.

Jungle Stories was published by Fiction House, and produced 59 issues between Winter 1938 and Spring 1954. It was pulp format and 128 pages for all issues. The price began at 20 cents, rising to 25 cents with the Winter 1950 issue. There were four volumes of 12 numbers and a final volume with 11 numbers. It was initially quarterly, though there was no Spring 1939 issue, and there were two issues, dated February and April 1943, instead of a Spring 1943 issue. From 1951 to the end there was no Summer issue each year.[1][2]
