Artwork of the Day: Amazing Stories Magazine (by Leo Morey)


1930 Leo Morey

by Leo Morey

This is from 1930 and, as you can tell from the signature at the bottom of the picture, this cover was done by Leo Morey!  I like this cover and the way it mixes the plane, the ocean liner, and the tentacled-creatures.  Three ways to travel, two human and one alien.  Are the aliens abducting the plane or are they saving the pilot and maybe the ship?  We may never know.

The Risqué Covers of High Heel Magazine!


High Heel Magazine was a pin-up pulp that run from 1937 to 1939.  Though it only ran for a short amount of time, the risque covers have made the magazine popular with collectors of both pin-ups and pulp art.  The covers almost always featured a woman who was often either showin off some leg or getting hit by a very high wind, stockings, and not surprisingly high heels.

Artwork of the Day: Flirt (by Peter Driben)


by Peter Driben

Guys got to Paris because their girlfriends can’t hang a picture?  It’s not that hard.  Maybe take off the high heels before you climb the step ladder though.

This is from 1954.  The cover was done by Peter Driben, whose work has been shared on this site many times in the past and probably will be shared again many times in the future.
