Cavalcade was a British weekly news magazine which was in circulation between 1936 and 1950.
[1][4] The founding publisher was News Periodicals Ltd.[5] In 1937 Cavalcade reported that its circulation was 50,000 copies,[1] but next year the magazine was sold due to financial problems.
[2] Cavalcade was the only British publication which published the photographs of King Edward and Wallis Simpson in the summer of 1936 taken when they were on holiday.
[6] An Australian edition of the same titled magazine was published in Sydney between the 1940s and persisted into the 1970s.
It was distributed by Gordon & Gotch and featured short fiction, self-improvement reports, "cheesecake pinups" and cartoons.
