Recently I went into a rabbit hole looking for detective pulp magazine covers for inspiration for a project.

Dime Detective was one of the most enduring of the pulp detective magazines from the American pulp era. They were called pulp because of the low quality of the paper they used. They are often credited as the ancestors of both paperback books and comic books.

The "It had to be Murder" story, published in the February 1942 issue, would later be renamed by the author, Cornell Woolrich, "Rear Window" and made into a film by Alfred Hitchcock in 1951.

You can find many scanned and available in the internet, although not this issue.
