We aim to provide insight into six Canadian periodicals that contributed towards the development of Canadian middlebrow culture.

This project explores the histories of mainstream anglophone and francophone Canadian magazines between 1925 and 1960. We have catalogued the contents of two magazines down to the article level. We also present selected issues and pages from all six in digital form.
