The Covers of Saucy Movie Tales


From 1935 to 1939, Saucy Movie Tales kept readers apprised of the glamour and danger of Hollywood.  This pulp magazine, which is eagerly sought after by collectors, told the stories of naive starlets who made their way to California and learned that the film industry was a place where dreams came true but sometimes, those dreams were nightmares.

The covers of Saucy Movie Tales were considered to be racy even by the standards of the pulps.  Below are just a few of them.
