April, 1934 and June, 1965
James Bama was a gifted artist who, from 1964 to 1971, produced covers for 62 of the Doc Savage paperbacks from Bantam Books.
It's interesting to see Walter Baumhofer's cover art for the original April, 1934 issue of Doc Savage magazine, featuring the novel 'The Monsters', and how Bama reworked it for the Bantam paperback edition published in June 1965.
In an interview, James Bama said he hadn't seen Baumhofer's pulp cover before painting his cover for the Bantam.
