    Yes it is, with the red background behind the title probably even deeper in color than on the picture.

    The Shadow - The Creeping Death - Jan. 15, 1933 21” x 30” (Oil on canvas) I remember saying to a few people, if I could have one Shadow Painting (or any pulp painting ever done), “The Creeping Death” would be the one. When it came up for auction at Heritage I couldn’t believe it, and I eventually ended up with it. A heartfelt “thank you” to Ferd Bernjak, Glynn Craine, and Todd Hignite who helped me obtain it!

    Out of 20+ Spider File Copies that a friend had, this was the one that he kept until last. The colours were unbelievable, as if it was just printed.

    I absolutely love that cover! I would love to have the original painting of that one!

    I love that Shadow Street & Smith Promotional Sign that is on the top part of the newsstand. I would love to add this to my collection as I have 18 original Shadow Signs from the 1930s and 40s, but I do not have that one! At the bottom of the original photo (which I have) it states that it is indeed warner brothers staged newsstand publicity photo. I did as much research as I could, contacting certain people that had the inside track of where Warner Brothers props are stored, but to no avail., they could not come up with anything. Note: Even if it didn’t state that it was a Warner Bros publicity shot, you can tell it was staged, because the magazines in the pic range from the 1930s to the 1950s.

    Here are two original photographs from 1933 that were taken of a newsstand vender just seconds apart, on 43rd St. in New York City. The pictures are about 3” x 6” Notice the sign on the bottom of the new stand that promotes the Shadow pulp magazine. There are only three known examples of that original sign to exist. I have one of them in my collection and two others are in private & public collections. Of course Jim Steranko for many years has sold reproduction prints of that sign.
