Anyways, without a doubt, I think the greatest Golden Age covers would definitely have to be the ones L. B. Cole did for various publishers: Star Publications: Novelty Press: Tem Publishing: Aviation Press: Rural Home Publications: Narrative: Four Star Publications:

It’s also the earliest photo I’ve seen which features comics published by DC, because issues of More Fun Comics and New Comics are present. -

Most distinctive GA artists?
Electricmastro replied to OdinsSecrets's topic in Golden Age Comic Books
Lou Fine's run on the Ray from Smash Comics is definitely worth highlighting. -
He and Jack Cole did some of the more creative and expressive comic book art of the 1940s as far as I’ve observed. Basil Wolverton too, who although might not be as “extreme” as Paddock, could still get rather weird. Wolverton’s drawings he did for Centaur Comics’ Amazing Mystery Funnies #24 (September, 1940) stick out to me in particular.

He only did one cover to my knowledge, and also did The Blood Pearls and The Monastery of the Blue God stories for DC's New Comics/New Adventure Comics in 1936-1938. My favorite work of his would have to be his Mars Mason stories. From Speed Comics #9 (June 1940, Harvey Comics).

L.B. Cole not only did good covers, but also good interior art, such as with Toytown Comics #1 (February 1945, Baily Publishing Company).
