Authentic Police Cases #7
This anthology issue contains multiple crime stories. "The Masked Blackjack" features police investigating a criminal who uses a glass plate technique to forge checks after printing blank ones on it, eventually tracing the phony check to a meat market on West Vliet Street on March 12, 1938. "Science Corners Criminals" depicts a confrontation involving an international incident where a character named Shorty attempts to smuggle a gun across the border, leading to a violent standoff at a baseball game where police and armed men exchange gunfire in the stands.
