Don Winslow of the Navy #20

Don Winslow of the Navy goes hand-to-hand in this October 1944 Fawcett issue, the cover promising high-seas tension with the story "The Prison Ship." The scene shows a sharp-jawed naval officer in uniform — Don Winslow himself — wrestling with a figure marked "PW" (Prisoner of War) aboard what appears to be a ship's bridge, while two alarmed men scramble in the background. It's a punchy, no-nonsense wartime cover that captures the gritty urgency of the era at a well-earned dime.
