"Lost World" analogy

I once read somewhere, perhaps in or on the Berkley Medallion paperback (library copy) of this novel that I once read, a discussion paralleling the characters to Professor Challenger, Lord John Roxton and Ed Malone of Conan Doyle's The Lost World novel and its sequels. If somebody could find that, or another piece to the same effect, I feel it would be permissible to add to this article. Anybody know of it (or disagree)? --Tbrittreid (talk) 00:19, 25 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

About the Saturday Evening Post...

I am not finding it there in 1928. I understand this is a "cited" fact, but, I am not finding it in those issues at Hathi.--RaboKarbakian (talk) 21:54, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@RaboKarbakian: The magazine name is correct but the date should be 1927. The story ran in four weekly installments from October 8 to 29, 1927. See here or here. I've corrected the date in the article. Regards, Newyorkbrad (talk) 22:00, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Newyorkbrad. I just came back to say I found it in October 8, 1927; Volume 200, No. 15. ~~Maybe it ended in early 1928 which is legally "the year it was published"~~ https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=uc1.31175006827706&seq=187 --RaboKarbakian (talk) 22:04, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Glad you tracked down the link. The story finished in 1927 in the Saturday Evening Post because the Post was published weekly. It lasted into 1928 in The Strand Magazine because The Strand was published only monthly. Regards, Newyorkbrad (talk) 22:08, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
