Authentic Police Cases #37 - Matt Baker cover

Matt Baker

Authentic Police Cases v1 #37, 1955 - Matt Baker illustrates a home intrusion on the verge of becoming a gunfight. His drawings are more textured and detailed than his previous covers. A wash of different colors add to the effect. Baker employs lines of perspective to point toward the action. The woman’s red dress makes her a focal point. The two smaller side panels fall short, but the primary scene is superbly constructed. Other artists in this golden age crime comic include Enrico Bagnoli. This is 27 of 28 Authentic Police Cases issues by Baker.
