Pinup of the Week: Strange Stories February 1939

Strange Stories 1939 02 February

Yes I’m still alive and kicking. Sorry for the lack of reviews lately. I’ve been working on other projects and it’s been cutting into my time spent creeping around in attics and luring poor orphans into the kind of situation pictured above.

This picture delightfully illustrates another one of those situations that happens to me: All. The. Time.

You just never know when you’re going to run into a pair of inbred, head-hunting, Siamese twin, hick brothers who also happen to be members of a rabid red cowl wearing secret society. Let me tell you that every time this happens to me, one of the brothers is ALWAYS missing at least one of this front teeth. They will ALWAYS be found dancing around a giant cursed gem with a head on a stick and terrorizing a redhead who happens to be wearing a crown she just uncovered in a South American archeological dig. And a tube top. My life is that awesome.

  • I wonder if the same guy modelled for both brothers? The grimace and the missing tooth might have been a cunning way of diminishing the resemblance.

    Could be my imagination, but the girl and the severed head seem to be exchanging glances.
