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,〔Ashley, Mike. ''The Age of the Storytellers'', The British Library and Oak Knoll Press, p. 196. 2006. ISBN 0-7123-0698-6〕 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.
The magazine's original offices were in Burleigh Street off The Strand, London. It was revived in 1998 as a quarterly magazine.

The Sherlock Holmes short stories by Arthur Conan Doyle were first published in ''The Strand'' with illustrations by Sidney Paget. With the serialisation of Doyle's ''The Hound of the Baskervilles'', sales reached their peak. Readers lined up outside the magazine's offices, waiting to get the next instalment. E. W. Hornung's stories about A. J. Raffles, the "gentleman thief", first appeared in ''The Strand'' in the 1890s. Other contributors included Grant Allen, Margery Allingham, J. E. Preston Muddock, H. G. Wells, E. C. Bentley, Agatha Christie, Mary Angela Dickens, C. B. Fry, Walter Goodman, E. Nesbit, W. W. Jacobs, Rudyard Kipling, Arthur Morrison, Dorothy L. Sayers, Georges Simenon, Edgar Wallace, Max Beerbohm, P. G. Wodehouse, Dornford Yates and Winston Churchill. Once a sketch drawn by Queen Victoria of one of her children appeared with her permission.
