There were several incarnations of the Mickey Mouse Magazine. The first series was published in 1933 as a theater and retail store premium. The second version ran from 1933 through to 1935 and was used by national dairies as a giveaway. The third version was a newsstand item that originally sold for 10 cents a copy.
