1. Lilliput

   Lilliput was a small-format British monthly magazine of humour, short stories, photographs and the arts, founded in 1937 by the photojournalist Stefan Lorant. The first issue came out in July and it was sold shortly after to Edward Hulton, when editorship was taken over by Tom Hopkinson in 1940. During the 1950s Lilliput was edited by Jack Hargreaves. It had a reputation for publishing what were, for the time, fairly daring photographs of female nudes. Contributors included H. E. Bates, Sir Max Beerbohm, James Boswell, Bill Brandt, Brassaï, Patrick Campbell, Aleister Crowley, Robert Doisneau, Dominick Elwes, Ronald Ferns, C. S. Forester, John Glashan, Sydney Jacobson, Robert Graves, Michael Heath, Ergy Landau, Nancy Mitford, Stephen Potter, V. S. Pritchett, Ronald Searle, Sir Sacheverell Sitwell, and Ylla. From August 1960 it was merged within Men Only. The first 147 issues had covers illustrated by Walter Trier with each design depicting a man, a woman, and a small terrier dog in various situations and periods. Lilliput Review, an American periodical that started in 1989, is unrelated.
