As a small point of interest, the stone overpass bridges on both covers here look like many of the ones built over highways entering/exiting New York City, which was home to the DC Comics offices. Some of these arches have been shored up or replaced entirely over time, but others still look exactly like they would have to the cover artists in 1939 & 1941. Here's a small bridge north of NYC that I pulled at random from GoogleMaps; you can see the structure matches nicely the one on the Detective #54 cover.
 

Love this! Very cool to see the New York City influence that Bob Kane and the artists looked at for Gotham City inspired art!
