This Has A Violent Cover By Arguably The Hottest Artist In The Medium, Making It Crucial To Any Expert Pre-Code Collector, Yet It Has Long Been Scarce In Presentable Shape, So Don't Take This Chance To Score A Brilliant World Class Example Lightly, Or You May End Up Settling For A Trashed Reader Copy Instead. The Pre-Code Horror And Crime Craze Was In Full Swing So It's Got The Ubiquitous Lurid Content Including Gore, Cheesecake, Treating Police Contemptuously, Extreme Violence, Good Girl Art And Other Classic Elements Of The Gritty Fifties Comics From Before The Advent Of The Comics Code Authority. The Horror, Crime, Pulp Fiction, Shock, Good-Girl And Supernatural Themes Never Go Out Of Style! This hails from a cool, dry, smoke-free, climate-controlled environment. See the various pictures, although most give it a washed-out appearance when it looks bold and striking in person. It still retains an amazing amount of luster and the eye appeal is stunning!
