This page contains links to PDF page images of 50 Damon Runyon Broadway stories as they originally appeared in Collier's between 1930 and 1945. I have included the cover of each issue, as for me the period covers, illustrations, and ads enhance Runyon's wonderful stories more than somewhat.
The Collier's pages are hosted at unz.org and may not be electronically reproduced (that's why they're posted here as individual page image links rather than as a combined PDF). Note (2020): The page links below worked when I wrote this page in 2016, but now they are broken due to subsequent reorganization of unz.org. You can use the Issue links to get to the correct issue, but if the story skips pages navigation from there is tricky.
