This book was originally published in 1948 but I’m not sure what year this Dell edition was published.

Cunningham.

by Robert Stanley
Manhattan Nights was first published in 1937. The Dell Edition came out in 1951 and featured this cover, by Robert Stanley. The boxer looks remarkably good for someone who gets beat up for a living. Neither his his manager nor his trainer seem to be there but his girlfriend made to the edge of the ring. Hopefully, she’s telling him to keep his hands up and protect that handsome face. It is almost Valentine’s Day, after all.
