The Pepper Pot
|
| Summary: |
This small, bimonthly magazine, subtitled "A New Wyoming Magazine," covered politics, literature, business, editorials, and statewide-news as well as publishing short stories, poems, and serialized fiction by Wyoming authors. There were several regular columns on cooking, fashions, children's stories, questions and answers, and book reviews. The editor was Emmett Fuller and it was published in Casper, WY. The magazine had a large number of ads and occasionally used black and white photographs or line drawings to illustrate articles. It had a number of columns, many with distinct components, which are indexed separately so long as they are longer than two column inches. "Pepper Pot Pleasantries" (a column of jokes), "Here and There and Everywhere" (editor's introduction), "The Ayes and the Noes" (letters to the editor), "State Calendar", "You Ask and I'll Answer" (question and advice column), "Highlights in Wyoming News" (short news items), "A Little Bit of Fun, Foolin' and Fundamental Filosofy Just between Us Editors" (editorial humor items), and "Sagebrush Sam Says" (aphorisms used as space filler), are not indexed. Completed one volume, 24 issues, before financial difficulties (probably related to the Great Depression) killed it.
