Left: The Mad Hatter Mystery, by John Dickson Carr (Dell, 1953). This cover illustration is by Denver Gillen, perhaps best remembered for helping to create the image of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. Right: The Mad Hatter Mystery, by John Dickson Carr (Berkley, 1958); cover art by Lu Kimmel. This was the second installment in Carr’s series starring Dr. Gideon Fell.

Nice! FYI, Denver Gillen also did some artwork for men's adventure magazines. For example he did a great illustration of a Kraken attacking a ship for a story by Arthur C. Clarke that's included in the CRYPTOZOOLOGY ANTHOLOGY, which I co-edited. It originally appeared in the October 1956 issue of ADVENTURE.
