Is there a word for a magazine that contains only advertisements?

Plus, can you say advertising, or advertisement magazine?

edit: I don't mean a leaflet (a single sheet of paper)

    I'd generally call this a "flier".

    I call those things circulars. They come through my door from local furniture shops, garden centres etc. They sometimes contain articles – like home tips intended to get you to buy their products.

I've seen plenty of these called shoppers. The word often shows up in the name of the newspaper or magazine. They may contain nominal 'news' items but their focus is advertising. Here's one example, The Monadnock Shopper News

Catalogue is the term I would use. The famous example is the Sears Catalogue. This corresponds to definition 4 in this Wiktionary entry.

If you were to say advertisement magazine, I would find this strange but would probably understand what you mean with a bit of thinking.
