Police Comics #106

This Quality Comics entry from June 1951 delivers exactly what its tagline promises — suspense, mystery, and intrigue — with a cover by Reed Crandall that pulls you right into the tension: a sharp-featured man in a blue suit clutches a woman in red while raising a revolver, as a startled redhead looks on from behind an office desk. The cover touts private eye Ken Shannon facing the ominously titled "Museum of Murder," alongside T-Man's Pete Trask, the Treasury Department's most resourceful agent, heading into "Mexican Slay Ride." Fifty-two full pages of crime-fighting drama for a dime made this one of the better deals on any 1951 newsstand.
