I believe it's Bob Powell's only pulp cover.

It depends on the issue.  The 15 issues by Bruce Elliot are generally quite poorly regarded by Shadow fans, from the few I've read they can be pretty fun as pulp fiction but not necessarily great as Shadow stories specifically.  I mostly look for them for the John D. MacDonald backup stories... which can be longer than the Shadow story in some cases.
I may have posted these in this thread before, not sure.  Might as well throw them out here again:

In today, courtesy of @Number 6's recent sales thread.  Not something I was necessarily looking for entirely for its own sake, but super happy to get a nice example of a Fantasy Press book for the collection:

That other Jungle is really good, but somehow I got fixated on this one.
It's driving me nuts I can't find another use of the figure here.  Last time I tracked one of Gross' Jungle bondage poses I found like 4 or 5 uses of it all flipped around and painted over in Jungle Stories alone.  Some of the body shapes you can track from Jungle to Lariat to North-West or wherever to Detective Book and then getting re-used in the funny books in Fight Comics, Wings, Jungle Comics, and on and on.  But I only saw this particular take just once and I looked in *a lot* of titles
The ones that get me are the Wings comics/pulps.  Bondage and airplanes together, really? FH really had a thing for tied up girls
Ridiculous

Strap em to a rocket, nothing to see here

*scribbles new issue on wantlist*

I keep looking at these.  I think preservation of the covers more than trades with the trimming -it's a really neat presentation the smaller issues.  The digest-sized Shadows are underrated.

I sunk my teeth into Tarzan like a rabid dog back in the early 70's. I couldn't get enough. Here's a couple volumes I noticed with exceptional cover art ... not familiar with the artist, and don't own any, yet. GOD BLESS ...

Almost perfect. 

Here’s a group shot of the 3rd series. I bought these off the rack and carefully read them once. They still look brand new!

I do like the reprint Hard Case did of "Fright" several years ago, but in general I love Hard Case's retro look:
 

Today's book:
 

In today.  The Berlin is interesting in that it has a wraparound image to the spine but not to the back cover at all.
Also, this puts me at 303 of 603 Ace DSG books.  Over half way!  I'm not quite to half the D Series doubles, but if I counted right I should be over once the handful I have on order arrive.

Perelandra by C.S. Lewis    Avon No. 277    1950    $55
Super looking high grade copy of one of the great classic Avon Sci-Fi books. Well worth a premium.
VF or better. Unread, square and ultra glossy with near perfect lamination. Tiny spot of wear at the top right and rear left corners.

Finally bagged a nice copy of the 1st Edition (PBO) of "Reefer Club" by Luke Roberts. Uni-Books No. 49, 1953 with the iconic Warren King cover.
One of the toughest of the US drug books, it's compounded by being a "Uni-corn" with any kind of complete cover due to the paper thin covers. It has a nice chip off the back but still the nicest looking copy I've seen for sale in 7 years of looking.

 
This completes the USA "Reefer Trifecta", along with "Reefer Girl" and the 2nd (Canadian actually) Edition under the Stallion imprint, re-using the censored version of the cover from "Basement Gang"

They are definitely better for the most part than the cover art on the Black Lizards from the first revival in the '80's, although I will always be grateful for their efforts. I still read Black Lizards today, although I always prefer reading an original vintage paperback.

I look forward to seeing your cleaned up version, because as I've said before I absolutely love this cover.
It's for an incredible story, too.
