DETECTIVE TALES is another pretty solid detective pulp from Popular Publications. This issue features an action-packed cover by Tom Lovell and stories by Arthur Leo Zagat, George Bruce, Fred MacIsaac, Franklin H. Martin, and a pulpster better remembered for his Westerns, Tom Roan. Roan's yarn is called "Satan Covers the Waterfront", and I'll bet it's a good one.

One of my favorite pulps, I really like the ones from 1935 to 1938
In my country, Italy, they've translated only one short story by Tom Roan, and I'm trying to discover the original title.
I give you the names of some character, please could you check and let me know if it's the same story?
The action unfolds in Seattle. Jim McCord; Angus McLaren; Frisco Jack Defoe; Philip Green alias Wilbur C. Grafton.
Thanks a lot for the help.

In my head, that’s Doc Savage wrassling with Ram Singh (for some reason, possibly a classic Marvel Misunderstanding), while Nellie Gray takes a shot at some off-stage ne’er-do-well.

Tiziano,
I don't own this copy, so I can't check the story. Sorry.
b.t.,
I really like that scenario, too.
