The Green Book Magazine, originally titled The Green Book Album, was a magazine published from 1909 to 1921.[1] It was published by the Story-Press Corporation (later Consolidated Magazines) as a companion to its Red Book and Blue Book magazines. For most of its run, the magazine primarily covered theater, but converted to a women's magazine for its last few years before ceasing publication in 1921.[2]
During the time that The Green Book Magazine covered American theater the periodical contained novelizations of current plays, along with biographical articles. It also published theatrical photographs.[1]
From 1911, the magazine was edited by Ray Long, who also edited Red Book and Blue Book for Story-Press. Long left at the end of 1918 to become the editor of Cosmopolitan.[2] With the August 1912 issue, he changed the name of the magazine from The Green Book Album to The Green Book Magazine.
