Six-Gun Heroes #18

This Fawcett Western anthology brings together four beloved cowboy stars — Hopalong Cassidy, Monte Hale, Rocky Lane, and Lash LaRue — whose portrait photos line the bottom of the cover, promising a packed issue of frontier adventure. Center stage is a grinning cowboy in a fringed Western jacket, strumming an acoustic guitar with easy confidence, capturing that distinctive blend of singing-cowboy charm that made these heroes so appealing to 1953 readers. With the story "The Marks of Innocence!" teased right on the cover, this issue delivers the kind of action-and-personality mix that made Six-Gun Heroes a reliable treat at the spinner rack.
