Eight of the others were published in The Strand Magazine between September 1904 and April 1905, illustrated by Australian artist George W. Lambert.
The character Stingaree first appeared in Hornung's Irralie's Bushranger, which was serialised in Cassell's Family Magazine in 1895, though this earlier version of the character was significantly different from the later version.

"In Peacock Blue" was published in Nash's Pall Mall Magazine in September 1921.
