Four Color #1111

From Dell's Western Adventures line comes this sharp 1960 tie-in to the Shotgun Slade TV series, featuring a striking photo cover of the rugged, confident Slade himself — black hat low, red patterned vest, and a shotgun resting across his arms with cool authority. The cover copy sets the stage perfectly: Slade is on the hunt for a gang of outpost outlaws threatening robbery and violence. A great snapshot of early-'60s TV Western tie-in publishing at its most direct and appealing.
