- Folder 24: Burdick's Magazine: v1, no.1 (October 1935) and v2, no.2 (November 1935)
- The origin of Burdick's Magazine lies with the newsletter that Burdick sent to his constituents following his election to the United States House of Representatives in 1934. For a time in the 1930s, this newsletter was known as Burdick's Magazine. The first edition of Burdick's Magazine was dated October 1935, and consisted of eight pages. Burdick wrote that it was "impossible to answer every inquiry that comes to me requesting information on the many perplexing questions now confronting so many in the Northwest who find themselves almost helpless in this sea of financial distress. This monthly publication may be the means of answering many questions, an above all else it will save a lot of work which I am unable to carry on at the present time." The issue also included a political cartoon, an itinerary of Burdick's speaking tour in North Dakota, as well as news from Washington, D.C. and North Dakota. The second edition was dated November 1935, and consisted of ten pages. This issue had one political cartoon, reproductions of Burdick's correspondence and speeches, as well as news from Washington, D.C. and North Dakota.
