William Luberoff had no formal training but he was one of the most prolific illustrators of the pulp era.  He began his career doing covers and illustrations for magazines such as Climax, Secret Agent X, and Saga and he also designed over 60 cover for Columbia, one of America’s top Catholic-interest magazines.  He retired from the magazine market in the 1960s and devoted himself to doing religious paintings.  While I was researching him for this post, I came across many of his paintings that I remembered first seeing in catechism class.  Luberoff’s painting Baseball can be seen in the Baseball Hall Of Fame.
