Description
Cover by Sheldon Moldoff. Stories and art by Maurice Whitman and others. Violent pre-Code tales of crime and the law from DS Publishing.

Beautiful Connie uses her looks to trap victims, but cannot escape the law, in a story featuring an unusual image (for the time) of a female criminal \"getting the chair.\" Ma Beamus and her children become notorious for their crime spree, in a story inspired by Ma Barker (that later caught the eye of Dr. Wertham). A maid borrows jewelry from a client, intending to give it back, but then her crooked boyfriend sees an opportunity for crime. Plus a vintage ad for a \"Personal Comic Album,\" used to store hole-punched issues of classic comic books!
