Paperback 394: The Girl from U.N.C.L.E. Magazine (Feb. 1967)

Paperback 394: The Girl from U.N.C.L.E. (Feb. 1967)

Author: Robert Hart Davis et al.
Cover artist: Uncredited

Yours for: $5

GirlUNCLE.Feb67

Best things about this cover:
  • Pretty sure the teal pen outline of the gun-toting figures is not original.
  • Photo was actually lifted from publicity stills for the failed "That Girl!" spinoff entitled "That Hat!"
  • There is rather remarkable definition / shading on the boobs here. Hard to see because the damned hat is so distracting, but it's there...
  • Zebra skin makes the best shoes.

Best things about this back cover:

  • Yet another publicity still, this one from the short-lived cover band / duo called "The Karpenters"

Finally he said, "Okay, Canard, but this only works once. I got friends in the D.A.'s office, too. When I get that envelope, you're a dead man."

"Sooner or later, Degna, we all are."

Yeesh, that's a line even "CSI: Miami" would've thrown away.
