“The Black Shroud”

In "The Black Shroud," a quiet moment at the post office spirals into a mystery when Richard, seeking a simple 3-cent stamp, becomes entangled with a thief who has a surprising connection to the very stamp he’s after. As the trail leads from the post office to a masked figure with a penchant for air mail stamps, Richard finds himself caught in a game of wits and deception—where every clue seems to point back to the same elusive criminal. Dick Mc Kay handles both art and inks for the story, while Bud Thompson’s cover captures the tension with a striking image of the masked thief.
