He's not credited by name on any of of the online comics databases, nor even in the recent DC SHOWCASE collection, but his style is pretty unmistakeable -- I'm 99% sure it's him.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2661016905862135918.post-37248044143026921002011-02-14T17:43:11.182-05:002011-02-14T17:43:11.182-05:00The artist for this one is George Zeil (see also &...The artist for this one is George Zeil (see also "The Deadly Travellers" by Dorothy Eden, and another Rinehart title, "Alibi For Isabel", here on your blog). He did at least a dozen Rinehart re-issues in the '70s that I know of, plus a bunch of Ngaio Marsh mysteries too.<br /><br />I love his stuff, been collecting his covers for decades, and just discovered his name a year or so ago (on the dust-jacket endflap of Kirby McCauley's anthology, "Frights"). I've searched and searched for info about him on the internets, but so far, zilch.<br /><br />He was in the paperback biz since the mid-50s at least -- did the art for a bunch of Chester Himes' Coffin Ed/Gravedigger Jones books, among others.<br /><br />Also, check out his horror stuff -- not quite WRFH, but similar in mood: the afore-mentioned "Frights", 3 titles by R. Chetwynd- Hayes, "Dracula Began" by Gail Kimberley, and "Gwen In Green" by Hugh Zachary. The Vault of Evil website has decent scans of most of these.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2661016905862135918.post-36812453611613602962010-07-21T11:44:53.454-04:002010-07-21T11:44:53.454-04:00Rob!: I think that sounds like a fine idea.
