Pinup of the Week: Horror Stories October 1939

Horror Stories October November 1939

“Sheesh!” You say as you slap your forehead. “Just how many of these crazy ‘girl in a jar‘ pulp covers can there be in the world?” The answer might just startle you. OK. OK. I’m just pulling your leg. There aren’t enough to startle anybody. More like just enough to make a person certain that it’s a meme of the age we’re talking about. This one happens to be by one of my favorite cover artists, who I suspect was John Drew, but who I call “Goldie” after the same girl who shows up over and over in the covers.

Great titles all around here:

I don’t know what you think, but it seems to me that this is a lot of work to go through to copy a bathing suit. Ha ha. I kid. I kid. No really. Here we see Modern Science about to answer to one of mankind’s most haunting questions: “What’s better than one beautiful redhead?”

He needs to turn that baby up to 11. That’s what he needs to do.

... the attic, a vast raftered length lighted only by small blinking windows in the gable ends, and filled with a massed wreckage of chests, chairs, and spinning-wheels which infinite years of deposit had shrouded and festooned into monstrous and hellish shapes.
