Bill,
I did some research and found (Willis) Todhunter Ballard 1903-1980 bio on an ancestry site, and he wrote a series of mysteries under pseudonym Sam McNeil with heroes Tony Costaine/Bert McCall. Here is a link to his bio.
Here are the Tony Costaine/Bert McCall books
Death Takes an Option, Gold Medal Books, 1958.
* Third on a Seesaw, Gold Medal Books, 1959.
* Two Guns for Hire, Gold Medal Books, 1959.
* Hot Dam, Gold Medal Books, 1960.
* The Death Ride, Gold Medal Books, 1960.
* Mexican Slay Ride, Gold Medal Books, 1962.
* The Spy Catchers, Gold Medal Books, 1965.
There are some covers online. Also I'm not sure the title of your book, but Mexican Slay Ride seems the obvious choice.
Amazon lists the title 'Mexican Slay Ride' but no cover image. Maybe you can get that vato from califas to spring for one.
Later,
David
