Wow! Great to see a scan of this cover as it was originally illustrated, prior to a bit of self-censorship on EC's behalf. Thanks for posting both versions, Jim!

Wow! To even think of getting away with a cover like that took some gaul. Great to see what lies beneath.

I can see why it was censored. Grisly but beautifully done.
