NOTE - this is a Reconstruction using several sources.
If anyone has the ACTUAL book cover to cover we would love to have the real IFC and IBC to complete this book.
This scan of Shiled Wizard has been reconstructed in part from
Miss Liberty #1 which reprinted that issue. I thank Stephen for
providing the scans of the text pages and the final Wizard story
from his copy of Miss Liberty.

The inside front, inside back, and back covers were taken from a
scan of Black Hood #9 sicne previous issues of Shield-Wizard had
the same covers as Hangman Comics (which became Black Hood with
#9). The indicia was copied from the indicia of Shield-Wizard #12
with the date and number changed.

The cover and inside front cover from Miss Liberty #1 are also
included.

Comment: This scan combines the existing incomplete scan with the missing Wizard story and text story provided by Paw Boom from the reprint in Miss Liberty #1. The inside front, inside back and back covers are from Black Hood #9 since SW #12 and earlier issues had the same covers as Hangman (which became Black Hood with issue #9. The indicia was copied from the indicia in SW #12 with the date and number changed.
