"Death's Premium"

Welcome to 1940.  What a great cover to start the new decade with.  This is one of the books I definitely covet.  And one has to congratulate Gladney for interpreting this passage into a fantastic image.

"Forming his hands into an interlocking pattern, The Shadow held them between the light and the paper on the table. Supple fingers cast a silhouette upon the sheet. It was a hawkish profile, topped by a slouch hat, in miniature. When The Shadow withdrew his hands the silhouette remained, shaded upon sensitized paper."

Yep, this is a great issue to start of the 40s with.
