I review the pulp story often said to be the inspiration for the legendary Shadow. The story, The Shadow of Wall Street, was written by George Jenks for a 1929 issue of Fame and Fortune Magazine. This was a Street and Smith publication released two years before the first issue of The Shadow Magazine.
In spite of the name and having a vigilante type the story really doesn’t have anything to do with the Knight of Darkness. However, it is still fascinating to read and has been a VERY rare pulp issue to get hold of. This lovely reprint from Sanctum books was done as part of one of their limited Shadow multipacks and is a real collectors item for diehard fans to analyze.
