Serial Publication
Red Harvest was originally serialized in four parts in Black Mask:
- Part 1: "The Cleansing of Poisonville" in Black Mask, November 1927
- Part 2: "Crime Wanted - Male or Female" in Black Mask, December 1927
- Part 3: "Dynamite" in Black Mask, January 1928
- Part 4: "The 19th Murder" in Black Mask, February 1928
Since each installment needs a beginning, middle and end, the Op closes a murder in each part while working on the overarching problem of cleaning up Poisonville.
