Welcome to THOMAS HUDSON'S Author's Pages

These are the known adventures of Motor Matt, hero of a weekly series of 32-page "oversize" printed editions, each about 30,000 words
long, accompanied by filler materials at the back including short stories and intersting "news" items. Although not specifically serial, each
story built on the ones before it. As with several other such publications, this was intended to run for several years and over a hundred editions.
It lasted just 32 stories, all written by a single author. A further 2 adventures of Matt were published later in 1909 under the banner of Brave and Bold Weekly.
