Credits
Colorist(s): ? (see notes)
Subject Matter
Genres: crime, non-fiction
Character(s): Joe Daniels (Constable); Bill (Policeman); The Mad-Man Gang [Sport Oblen; Chuck Killinger; Bob] (villains)
First Line: On a hot July afternoon in the late thirties...
Synopsis: The bank of Harker Falls is robbed of $20,000 by the Mad-Man Gang, but in making their getaway, the gang left tire prints behind. So Constable Daniels has plaster casts made of them and takes them to the FBI laboratories, and they are able to reconstruct the crime to a tee as well as identifying the getaway vehicle as a Palmer car. A clue of a thread from an expensive suit is then traced back to Sport Oblen, and before long the gang is tracked down and arrested.

The names and places of this true story are fictitious.

Colors were previously attributed to Marie Severin, but it is unlikely that Severin had begun coloring at EC when this issue was colored (Cassell 2012, 33–34 and 171).
