New York-based artist George Gross got his start working for the pulp magazines in the 1940s and he was a prolific and in-demand artist for the next four decades. Along with painting covers for Action Stories, Detective Book Magazine, Jungle Stories and countless other magazines, Gross also painted covers for the popular Avenger and Nick Carter paperback series.

A Blast From The Past: Charlton Heston Explains The Ratings System
Hi!
Are you confused by the ratings system? Well, fortunately for you, Charlton Heston was willing to take some time out of his tennis game in order to explain it to you. This short film is from 1972 so it’s a little bit out-of-date. There’s no mention of PG-13 or NC-17, for instance. (And, of course, Charlton Heston is no longer with us…) But the point comes across regardless.
When I went to see Kingsmen at the Alamo Drafthouse, they showed this clip before the movie. The audience absolutely loved it.
