An Ad For The Shadow by Mike Kaluta
As Russ said in the wayback, after Kaluta had his short run on the first few issues of The Shadow comic, that's when he REALLY started illustrat'n The Shadow

Bran Mak Morn by Gene Day
This cover of a Robert E. Howard fanzine (REH Two-Gun Raconteur) was all that and a bag of chips. I'll say it again, we lost Gene way too young
The Frost Giant's Daughter by Frank Frazetta

Spacey Trio by Wally Wood
The other two up a bunch on here, but I am almost positive (which for me is equivalent to 100%) that I've never posted that first one, a 1957 illo from Dude magazine. Best I can comprehend it is Dude was a poor man's Playboy
