Sorry to be so long in replying. I've been trying to find out where Zenith appeared, apart from the now out of print hardback from a few years ago.  He was in some issues of Union Jack but I haven't had the time to check through evert issue onCB+. And I'm doing this on my tablet and can't figure out how to put on a link with it. For the time being, go to "Pulp", Union Jack", and have rake through the issues there.

Not sure if anyone is still after Sexton Blake / Zenith the Albino stories as this is an old post?

I've got all of the Detective Weekly editions mentioned by wreade1872, but unfortunately time is my enemy in getting any of them scanned in. The link in the post no longer works, but found a mirror in http://www.oocities.org/jessnevins/zenith.html

I scanned & uploaded Detective Weekly #09 recently, but unfortunately no mention of Zenith was there.

I can do another, any preference to which edition / story?
