Lev Gleason Publications · Crime Does Not Pay #115 · October 1952 · 10 cents
Grade: Good (GD 2.0)
“Terror on Loon Street” anchors this issue, built entirely around all true crime illustrations — no embellishment, no fictionalized spin. Crime Does Not Pay's editorial formula: take the facts, lay down the visuals, let the reader connect the dots.
October 1952 positions this deep in Crime Does Not Pay's Golden Age run — well into Lev Gleason's 147-issue command of the crime genre. By this point, the formula was locked: straight reportage, true illustrations, no moralizing intro needed. The Code was coming, but this copy predates it.
Condition GD 2.0 — Heavily worn but complete. Spine may show heavy roll. Readable with obvious damage throughout.. Noting: All True Crime Illustrations. Features story 'Terror on Loon Street'. Price 10 cents..
We use what the scientists are calling artificial intelligence to research and write our descriptions — it gives us more time to add books to our website and provide you with a wider array of inventory. We think Klaatu would approve. Details are verified but the robot does slip up. We're not infallible. Every book is graded by a human collector who has actually held it. If anything ever looks off, reach on out at robopictocomics@gmail.com.
