Mafia 1 Remake Definitive Edition has 10 Gangsters Monthly Locations. Finding all copies of Gangsters Monthly Comics unlocks the Picture Book Connoisseur trophy or achievement. This guide shows all their locations.
None of the Collectibles in Mafia 1 Remake / Remaster are missable. You can see which Collectibles you’ve found in the Collection Menu. Click on the Collectible Type and press 
(PS4) / 
(Xbox One) to sort them by their Chronological Order. This guide lists them in the order they are closest together and includes the chronological in-game number and name for each one, so you can easily find your missing one. All Collectibles are saved instantly. On chapter replays you can quit to the Main Menu without reaching the next Checkpoint and there’s no need to find them again if you die. Everything carries over into your next playthrough, nothing gets lost when starting a new game.
Whenever there’s a collectible nearby it will show up as a colored icon on the minimap. The Gangsters Monthly look like comic books.
4 Gangsters Monthly can only be found in the Story. The remaining 6 are found in Free Roam (Free Ride). You can access Free Ride from the Main Menu after playing the first story chapter. For a list of all other Collectible Types, including which ones to look out for during the story in chronological order, refer to the Mafia 1 Remake Collectibles Guide.

Gangsters Monthly in Free Ride
5 – Gangsters Monthly #5: The Mafia Three
North Park – on the rooftop of the diner north-east of Pepe’s Restaurant. You need a vehicle and jump over a ramp to reach the diner’s rooftop. The ramp is just to the east of the diner. If you’re having trouble with this, use the Crazy Horse car, which is unlocked from the first Phone Booth Side Quest. The jump is quite tricky. If your car runs out of gas (starts to slow down), remember you must refill the tank at a gas station to drive full speed again. (Special thanks to Nesmaster for sharing this location)

Central Island – in the alley east of the State Prison you can climb over a chainlink fence to find this Gangsters Monthly collectible in a yard.

Little Italy / Works Quarter – in the section north of Works Quarter / south-west of Little Italy, climb over the wall in the parking lot to reach a garden area with this Gangsters Monthly magazine.

Chinatown – in an alley where the letter “H” of “Chinatown” is on the map.
9 – Gangsters Monthly #3: Beware Hanoi Hangman
Chinatown – by a chair of a fisher hut, at the coast south of Terranova Bridge.
10 – Gangsters Monthly #7: An Offer You Can’t Refuse
Countryside – in the north-east corner of the countryside area, on the balcony of Clark’s Motel. You can climb on some logs on the outer wall of the building and from there to the balcony above.

sup, #9 is called Sarah Moll on a Mission, not Holl 🙂
PowerPyx says
Good spotting! This has been fixed, thank you =)
Omen says
Gangsters Monthly #5 is between claveny garden and LITTLE ITALY below the road which lead to west river tunnel behind the dinner
PowerPyx says
That’s a Dime Detective, not a Gangsters Monthly.
Jinks says
Yo me and a friend hunted every square of every town no luck I believe number 5 isn’t in the game or it’s locked behind something ?
Blackbeard says
There is a strange grey paint can in “Little Italy” right above the letter “A” on the map. People said that if you pick it up, it opens a blank page. It may be a bug, but I am not sure.
PowerPyx says
I found that one too, it just has a placeholder text. Wouldn’t be surprised at this point if it’s the missing collectible. That item seemed way out of place to be a normal note.

PowerPyx says
Thanks man! You were the first to find it and post the location here.
Credited you in the guide 🙂
It’s #5 in the guide now.
That was the only collectible in the game on a rooftop. I ran through the entire map on foot and everything else was accessible from the street. Quite well hidden that one. Good spotting!

Thanks for sharing it with us 🙂
And also to many many more who did so moments later 🙂
Get that Platinum!
TJCal50 says
I gotta admit, you pulled through. After spending a few hours combing through Reddit comments which turn out to be dead ends, you came through. Nice work. Now let’s plat this sucker.
PowerPyx says
Last Gangsters Monthly has been found (thanks for Nesmaster for his comment above).
It’s #5 in the guide now. So if you already collected the other Gangsters Monthly collectibles, check #5 and it will be the new one. Enjoy 🙂
