Art Profile: Cowgirl Romances


Just in time for Valentine’s Day weekend, it’s Cowgirl Romances!  Between 1950 and 1952, Fiction House published 12 issues of Cowgirl Romances and told stories about women in the old west who searched for love while shooting rustlers and other varmints.

I haven’t been able to discover who did the covers below but if any of our readers know, please let us know in the comments.

(The A.N.C. at the top of each cover stands for American News Company.)

(Update: After Gary identified issue 12 as being the work of Maurice Whitman, I did some research and discovered that all 12 of these covers were done by Whitman.  Thanks, Gary!)
