Pretty sure that I've never posted this here. A pretty cool double cover.

More sexy Fox crime...

Been after this one for a long time.  Came in today.

Can't recall having seen a copy before.

A recent pick-up. True Crime #5 with the wild Marijuana Racket Girl story.

[Robot Man]

And this completes a very tough run of this title. These just so rarely turn up.

Nice! I have the run also but 2 are Canadian editions.

Technically just barely Silver I guess, but I don't think that there's a Silver crime thread, so this'll probably find it's best audience here. Cool Severin cover!

You take what you can get on this run...

One of the earliest crime covers (Picture Crimes #1, June 1937). Art by Edgar Franklin.

I never in my life collected crime or romance, but the boards have turned me into a Matt Baker fan. The cops are always noble, the bad guys despicable, and the women are, in a word, hot. Total fantasy and all the more fun for it.

This is my first crime book, a pickup from last nights HA weekly

Great start! Wish I had picked these up when they were cheap.

What a great book to start with. Not easy to find. This will seem cheap in a few years.

This is a crime book, but it could also be a horror cover...
