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.

Breezy Stories Magazine was first published in 1915 and had a run of over 300 issues.  That’s a huge amount for a pulp magazine.  Judging from the covers, the magazine promised a mix of stories and pin-ups.  Here’s just a small sampling of the covers of Breezy Stories!

Happy St. Patrick’s Day From The Pulps


by Enoch Bolles

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!  I’ll be wearing green and celebrating my Irish heritage today.  Luckily, the pulps are here to help us get into the mood.  Unfortunately, the pulps didn’t always focus on the positive things about Ireland but, for that, we’ve got countless Hallmark movies!  Enjoy St. Patrick’s Day with a little pulp art!
