Well, not much we can say about this cover, is there. The nose is pretty good but he looks, hmm, ordinary. I'm not sure if I would have been excited or disappointed upon seeing this on the newsstand. Disappointed that it surely isn't the hero from the pages of my beloved pulp. Excited that The Shadow would be lurking in my neighborhood theatre soon. Ah, the age of anticipation and limited entertainment options.
The story? I couldn't tell you since I haven't read it yet but this review might whet your appetite for this 1937 entry, originally titled "House of Doom" into the annals of The Shadow. I know it has me intrigued.
