Saturday's random pulp cover: Black Mask: Hell's Stepsons: October 1929


 Awesomely cool cover art!  Possibly it's because I see The Dark Eagle in this illustration. J. W. Schlaikjer is the artist of this and many other of the very best Black Mask covers.  This particular issue is quite valuable/expensive due to the fact that it is the original home to the second installment of The Maltese Falcon.  Dashielle Hammett's famous tale ran from September 1929 to January 1930.
