The Strange Disappearance of Joe Cardona






Wonderful cover.  Would love to have seen the muzzle flash go right through the center of the "O", but that's just me.  Nice use of the purple color and a great rendering of The Shadow himself.  Funny that the story revolves around our hero saving Inspector Cardona (hence the longest title in the run of the pulps) yet there is a damsel on the cover.  I'd write it off as sex sells but that dress screams school marm!  Haven't read this one but I look forward to it.
