Your typical novel pulp ran around 70,000 words or so. (Novel pulp - Doc Savage, The Shadow, G8 and His Battle Aces, ect.) They were broken down into, Novel -50-60,000 word, Short Adventure Story, and some sort non-fiction adventure related story.
The later Doc Savages were 30-40,000 words packaged with another short novel (actually both were novellas), instead of one larger novel.
