Detective Story Magazine was an American magazine published by Street & Smith. It was the publishing house's first pulp magazine and was originally a dime novel entitled Nick Carter Weekly.
Street & Smith would take stories from their pulp magazine and have them read on the radio by a character named "The Shadow." Confused listeners would ask for copies of "The Shadow" magazine. This led to the creation of The Shadow as written by Walter B. Gibson.
