I had never seen this cover before, but while searching a dealer's auctions on ebay I saw it.  I won it cheap too, so I don't know what's up with this book, but I like it.  I mean, just look at it...it has two guns blazing...what could be better than that?  :insane:

Cool one “for a western”. I have a few including that one. I believe Schomburg did some in-credited covers for that title.

Apparently I'm in cosmic harmony with my fellow boardies lately because I picked up a copy of that one a couple of weeks ago.  Still haven't gotten around to scanning it.

So you're into red boots too, eh, Sqeggs?

did her appearance in issue 7 and in this issue influence EC in their creation of the Old Witch?

Possibly, but there was an earlier and on-going tradition in radio to have a host for suspense/horror tales.

From what I've read, there was a radio program in the late '40's that featured an old witch as the host, and it was from that, that Gaines and Feldstein got the idea of having one as a comic book host on their new trend title, TFTC.

That almost certainly is a Schomburg.  Cool cover!
