The Out Of This World Covers Of The Pulps


by Leo Morey

Years before any whistleblowers testified at any Congressional hearings about crashed UFOS and “non-human remains,” the pulps told the world all that it needed to know about spaceships, aliens, and what lies beyond the Milky Way.  Here’s a small sampling of the out of this world covers of the pulps (and one comic book that I included because I liked the cover)!

Celebrate Moon Day With The Pulps


by Enoch Bolles

54 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 provide a clue as to how people imagined life on the Moon before Neil Armstrong first stepped out of the capsule.
