Artist Profile: Edward Mortelmans (1915 — 2008)


Among the pulp illustrators whose work I’ve featured, Edward Mortelmans is one of the few to actually have a wikipedia entry.  Unfortunately, beyond the fact that was a British artist who worked for several publishers, the entry doesn’t go into too much detail about Edward Mortelmans’s life.  Mortelmans was active from the 60s through the 80s and, unfortunately like a lot of pulp illustrators, it appears that his greatest recognition has been posthumous.
