The Pulps Go To The Moon


by John Melo

56 years ago today, the first manned spaceflight to the Moon touched down on the lunar surface.  Let’s celebrate this wonderful anniversary with a little help from the pulps!  Not only were these covers illustrated by some of the finest artists working in the business but they also show how people imagined life on the Moon before Neil Armstrong took his one small step.
