Doc Savage ran this cover the month previous as part of a campaign of American flag covers that 500 or so magazines nationwide participated in. I haven't found a lot on this but it makes sense that, as America fought its way across Europe and the Pacific, the need to push morale and boost fundraising at home became essential. Click the link to get an idea of the "United We Stand" campaign. At least the title "Legacy of Death" wasn't on the cover, that would have been disastrous. The story itself is a step up from the previous tale but still only sits in the middle of the novels.
