Nelson Lee Library (Series 4, Third New Series)

Series 4 (More commonly known as the "third new series") ran from 25th February 1933 until 12th August 1933. In this series the AP reprinted a number of issues from the old series hoping to emulate the success of the Gem when they followed the same reprint policy. Unfortunately this wasn't to be and the Nelson Lee Library merged with the Gem after only 33 issues.

A number of issues are available for download. Click on the hyperlink to download the file. Click on the thumbnail to display a high resolution scan of the front cover.
