This was the only issue of the title…“Rumored to have been shut down before wide distribution due to risqué content, with only a few copies actually making it to the newsstands. Some sources claim it came out in 1933, others in 1935.”

“Published as a direct challenge to Spicy Detective Stories, the stories in Vice-Squad Detective were even sexier and it is believed that most copies were seized by police prior to distribution, which may explain why there was no second issue. Although dated as 1933 by many authorities, its publication was noted in the July 1935 issue of Author & Journalist.” (philsip)
