Description

The Shadow #3 October 1931 (Street & Smith) Condition: Apparent GD+. This issue has the distinction of bearing the first Shadow cover by Jerome Rozen, the first mention of the Shadow's iconic twin pistols, the first appearance of Vic Marquette, and the first cover appearance of the Shadow; naturally, the Shadow makes his first cover appearance in shadow prior to his first physical cover appearance. Restoration includes spine split seals. Tape stains along front cover interior. Bookery's notes "first year Shadow issues are quite scarce". Bookery's Guide to Pulps: Revised Third Edition 2025 GD 2.0 value = $600.
