Item description from seller

Octavo, single issue, cover by John Howitt, pictorial wrappers. Pulp magazine. "Serpent of Destruction" with Norvell Page writing as "Grant Stockbridge." The character was established to be a direct competitor to Street and Smith's Shadow magazine. After Doc Savage and The Shadow this was the most popular hero character. The Spider character was considered one of the most brutal and violent of the pulp era. [Reference: Cook, Mystery, Detective and Espionage Magazines, pp. 521-527. Tymm and Ashley, Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Weird Fiction Magazines, pp. 602-604]. Darkening to text paper with edge brittleness and loss to corners, edge wear with creasing, chip to upper right cover and first leaf, overall soiling, especially to spine, a fair to good copy.
