Somewhere I think I may still have some beater copies of post-Code westerns that reprinted pre-Code stories. As I recall, the changes were really crudely done, mainly by whiting out anything that the Code might have found objectionable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a tough choice, but I was gonna vote for Alex Raymond. That never occurred to me before: Three great artists in one name! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You had me digging into boxes tucked in the back. Hopefully someone (you?) has a better copy to share - I'll include the inside front cover too.

I must have misplaced it though so no inside pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously, they are more text heavy as he tries to cover the contents of the book, but they are really knocking me out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen some 30's books where some of the stories are color and others black and white but The Unknown Man is the first I've seen where only the splash is b & w and the rest of the book in color.

adamstrange Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Avon gave Kinstier responsibility for the interior cover sketches across all their titles. All of those illos are b&w. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
