Collier’s Weekly
Collier’s Weekly was an American magazine founded by Peter Fenelon Collier and published from 1888 to 1957. With the passage of decades, the title was shortened to Collier’s.
As a result of Peter Collier’s pioneering investigative journalism, Collier’s Weekly established a reputation as a proponent of social reform. When attempts by various companies to sue Collier ended in failure, other magazines became involved in what Theodore Roosevelt described as “muckraking journalism.” In 2010, the Collier’s trademark was purchased by JTE Multimedia, which announced plans to resurrect the brand and did so in February 2012. (from Wikipedia)
Wodehouse had a very lengthy association with Collier’s, starting with the printing of “Archibald’s Benefit” in 1910, continuing with eleven stories and nine serialized novels through Something Fishy in 1956. We present here the complete set of Wodehouse stories and serializations in Collier’s before 1923; later items are still under USA copyright and cannot be included on this site.
