Survive April Fools Day With The Pulps!


Artist Unknown

April Fools Day is the worst of all holidays and it’s hated by all good people, including me.  Here to help us survive this “gag”-filled day, here are some pulp covers that are dedicated to jokes, gags, laughs, and sometimes pin-ups.  If you’ve been fooled today, maybe these covers can provide some comfort.  If you haven’t been fooled, just remember that this terrible day is not over yet.

Luckily, Fox’s work can speak for itself:
