Spicy/Speed Mystery (Stories)
Spicy Mystery Stories was one of the notorious Spicy pulps published by Culture Publications in the late 1930s which concentrated on a simple formula - fast action stories laced with sex. It ran for nine years under that title before the forces of reform forced it to change to the rather more sedate Speed Mystery. The large number of reprints in the last couple years are apparently the result of an embezzlement scheme by two of the editors.
