This will be one of the rare times I use a person's last name because this is dedicated to a man who was a tremendous influence on me in the late 70s/early 80s. Jack Deveny as I knew him hailed from Edina MN and though he did not introduce me to pulp magazine collecting- a gentleman named Tom J. did that he did encourage me greatly in the area of collecting and appreciating the Shadow.
