Tom Lovell - 1936 Shadow pulp interior page - The Partners of Peril - storyline and artwork used in The Batman story in Detective 27

"Historic and Iconic Illustration" "Foreshadowing The Batman" (illustration and storyline used in Detective 27) *1936 Shadow Pulp illustration Original Interior Art (double-page illustration), by Tom Lovell* A few years back in an interview with Jim Steranko, Bill Finger revealed that he and Bob Kane swiped the storyline for Detective 27 from a shadow pulp magazine. A few years later, Shadow historians Anthony Tollin and Will Murray, through extensive research were able to piece the puzzle together and find out that it was indeed the story from The Shadow "The Partners of Peril" from 1936. Tollin revealed this in a publication that was circulated, worldwide, entitled "Foreshadowing the Batman" In the Partners of Peril was the classic double-page interior art illustration by the great Tom Lovell, in which the design & imagery was swiped and used in: "The Batman story in Detective 27." It was a long time in the making, but I finally acquired that piece of original art from my friend Anthony Tollin. ***No original art exists from Detective 27 (other than some proof sheets,), but this swipe source does! **** Year: 1936 Artist: Tom Lovell Shadow Pulp: "The Partners of Peril" (14" x 20") - Pen and ink with Zip-tone wash... (circa. 1936).
