Ever read Avenger novels? Some solid covers, even if the first seems to suggest the secret new weapon to rule the world with is an anvil (worked in WB cartoons).
Remarkable how bad the Doc Savage, etc., covers became as Street and Smith lost interest in being a pulp publisher in late '40s...
Yeah, I read the first half dozen or so paperbacks when they first came out, then lost interest. Even as a kid I knew the Avenger's "Kenneth Robeson" couldn't be the same guy who wrote the Doc novels.
