I’m not sure that disguise would work by A for effort. The cover was done by Ann Cantor, one of the few women to regularly work in the pulps.

Artwork of the Day: Detective Short Stories (by Mat Kauten)
by Mat Kauten
This is from 1947. Hopefully, she’ll be able to pull him all the way into that canoe before it starts sinking from the bullet holes. The cover was done by Mat Kauten.
Artwork of the Day: The Case Against Myself (by George Geygan)
by George Geygan
George Geygan was one of the few pulp artist to regularly sign his name to his covers, which is how we know that he was responsible for this one.
Artwork of the Day: Arboretum Path
by Erin Nicole
Happy Thanksgiving! I took this picture a few Novembers ago at the Dallas Arboretum. During the spring and summer, of course, those trees are full of leaves. But I like the fall and winter look too!
Artwork of the Day: An Acre of Love (Artist Unknown)
Artist Unknown
This is from 1959. Unfortunately, the identity of the artist responsible for this moody cover is not known.
Artwork of the Day: The Night Horseman (by John Leone)
by John Leone
Though the cover is from a later edition, this book was originally published in 1920, one of the many westerns that Max Brand wrote over the course of his life. (Brand died in 1944, while serving in the U.S. Army.) From the information that I found online, this book was about “Whistlin'” Dan Barry, a cowboy who only rode at night and whose horse was named Satan! That would be enough to keep me as far away from Whistlin’ Dan as possible!
The cover for this edition was done by John Leone.

by Allen Gustav Anderson
Credit for this atmospheric cover goes to Allen Gustav Anderson. The site has featured much of Anderson’s work in the past and will undoubtedly feature even more of it in the future.
Artwork of the Day: Super-Science Fiction (by Frank Kelly Freas)
This is from 1957. I don’t think that would qualify as a practical space suit.
Artwork of the Day: Modern Mechanix (by Stewart Rouse)
by Stewart Rouse
This is from 1936. I wish I had a trailmobile.
Artwork of the Day: The Shadow (by Graves Gladney)
This is from 1940. The flowers still look pretty, even if their owner has taken a turn for the worst.
