Authentic Police Cases #7 - Matt Baker cover

Matt Baker

Authentic Police Cases v1 #7, 1950 - Two policemen break into a gangster's home, momentarily distracting him. His moll struggles to escape before the shootout ensues. Matt Baker creates an opulent setting on this cover, reinforced by the decorative furniture. The drapery of the girl's dress is sumptuously drawn, adding to the sophistication. The overturned chair suggests an altercation just minutes before. This scene has no accompanying tale inside and the text box refers to another story. Other artists in this golden age crime comic include Jack Cole. This is 2 of 28 Authentic Police Cases issues by Baker.
