Octavo thirty-two volumes pictorial wrappers uniformly bound in green cloth. A complete file of 181 issues in bound volumes. Doc Savage was a precursor to the modern super hero. Clark "Doc" Savage Jr. was trained from birth with a rigorous regimen resulting in extraordinary strength and intelligence. He never killed unless necessary he had scientific gadgets a headquarters and a secret base a fortress of solitude. The stories combined mystery adventure and some science fiction. He also had a team of five experts in various fields to assist in his adventures. His stories were extremely popular during the pulp era and then found a new audience in the 1960s-70s when the series was reprinted in paperback. The novels were written using the house pseudonym of Kenneth Robeson the main author was Lester Dent who wrote nearly 80% of the novels. Other author contributors as Robeson included William Bogart Alan Hathway Harold Davis Laurence Donovan and W. Ryerson Johnson. There were many excellent contributors to the short stories which rounded out the magazine with authors such as Steve Fisher E. Hoffman Price Q. Patrick John D. MacDonald Bruno Fischer Frank Herbert William Lindsay Gresham to name a few. Street and Smith publishing executive Henry Ralston and editor John Nanovic established the initial idea for Clark "Doc" Savage Jr. - .a brawny 'superman' a master of many fields-surgeon mineralogist engineer inventor linguist. His skin was a glowing bronze.his hair was a matching hue and so too his eyes resembling gold flake. He would be known as the Man of Bronze."- Server Encyclopedia of Pulp Fiction Writers p.81. "Doc Savage was intended to be an adventure character but under Lester Dent's imaginative manipulations he became something more - the first superhero and an inspiration for countless pulp comic-book and television characters." - Cook Mystery Detective and Espionage Magazines pp. 521-527. "The enormously wealthy Doc Savage – headquartered in a fantasticated New York with his five sidekicks who specialize in various crafts and sciences at the borderline of sf – devotes his life to combating criminal conspiracies almost all masterminded by the kind of charismatic villain later given definitive form by Ian Fleming in the James Bond books. Doc Savage himself clearly influenced the creation of Superman." - SFE online. A note on artists Walter Baumhofer contributed the initial look to the character with his striking cover painting through late 1936. Other artists include Robert George Harris Emery Clarke Modest Stein and George Rozen. An ideal collection for an institution.
