With a WEALTH of clews, the true SEEKER should have no trouble with this cover...A nice 1934 Rozen cover but a bit boring, in a way. Not a fave, despite the close-up depiction of Our Hero. I think Rozen did better, generally, with medium shots of The Shadow; the really big faces, with a couple of exceptions [FINGERS OF DEATH and BLACK HUSH come to mind] don't show Rozen at his compositional or painterly best, IMHO...
