The magazine was owned by Esquire and published by David A. Smart from 1936 to 1961.[2]

Typical issue

Each issue had a wide variety of articles and features, as well as a condensed book section. Poetry was featured, along with gift advice and star stories. The sister company Coronet Films was promoted in most issues as well. Articles on culture and the arts were mixed with adventure stories and social advice.

Coronet Films

Coronet Films were also produced by David Smart and the Esquire company. Primarily thought of as school films, its titles included "Fun of Being Thoughtful" (1950), "Dating: Do's and Don'ts" (1949), and "Where Does Our Meat Come From?" (1960).
