This is a very special issue of this magazine. The cover story is about the murder of one of their top models, 20-year-old Veronica (Ronnie) Gedeon. Gedeon was murdered by a mentally deranged sculptor, and according to this Wikipedia article, her murder and the manhunt for her killer captivated America much like the kidnapping of the Lindberg baby did.

Several... alluring photos of Veronica, as well as an editorial from the Editor demanding harsher prison terms for sex offenders like her murderer add to the appeal of this issue.
This copy is in stunning condition. The spine is perfect, the paper is supple inside, no rips, tears or tape anywhere. There is a very small amount on paper loss along the top edge of the front cover which you can see in the photo. There is a black line along the left hand edge which is a printing flaw and not a later defect. I have had several of these 1930's Crime Magazines with this type of printing flaw before. I would grade this conservatively at Fine/Very Fine. You will be hard pressed to find a nicer copy.
Please look at all the photos for additional condition details. Happy to answer any questions and combine multiple wins to save you on postage fees.
