It's a wild scene, the animals are all super-chill or at least standing mystic-like in the background and Eve is having a good time, but Adam's uptight about the naked. It's got neat little details like the tiger's tail as a cane, or the moon sort of centered against the circles of the D and G. I probably need a better copy to get the right colors (and will likely work from a higher rez image if I do a full scan of the issue), so I didn't go too crazy with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darwination Posted December 27, 2023 Share Posted December 27, 2023 Is it too late for more Christmas covers Oh, yes. But I've got a bunch I picked out before Xmas from outside of my collection, and I'm going to go ahead and post a bunch since I've gathered em up. I haven't completed my indexing of all the girlie pulp titles yet, so there's possibly better images of the fictionmags thumbnails out there. I'm sure to have missed some - I tried to stick to the traditional girlie pulp sorts of titles: Start with a Bolles there that was recently up for auction, naughty! pmpknface, Surfing Alien, thehumantorch and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darwination Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 Ha, no to be clear, this last grouping isn't mine I was just out to share images of all the Xmas girlie pulps while I was contemplating the subject. There are probably at least a few of these on my huntlist (early Bergey Paris Nights and the Moskovitz and who am I kidding likely some of the others too). The early Snappy Stories and Breezy can be especially scarce and seem to fetch more than you'd expect for romance looking covers. I imagine there are some more Xmas issues out there of some of the lesser known titles,too. I do believe I have a few in muh boxes on the subject of New Year's, probably as common a cover theme on the girlies as Xmas... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darwination Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 (edited) It's not New Year's yet, but it is! I thought I may have more than I turned up, but you don't want to just throw in any picture of a girl with champagne at what looks like a New Year's party cuz that's a lot of girlie pulp covers in the roaring 20s I know there's a good number of these out there I don't have, but here's the ones I found going through my covers (the one above is my favorite, I like Moskovitz's girls next door types as much as his more elegant dames). Not a girlie pulp, but I'll kick off with this one cuz of the approximate date, 101 years too late, Levon Wright on a super early True Confessions (in my immediate scan pile) And I missed this one at X-Mas, but I'm pretty sure this painting is of New Year's anyways Missed this one at Xmas, too so what the hey (actually have this one up at eBay) https://archive.org/details/college-humor-and-sense-119-1933-12-darwination-mc-coy-ia We'll go chronological, just like old man time If that Ward bird isn't too much for you, somehow I've got the UK edition as well the wild, woolly world of UK reprints. I've seen far worse imitations perpetrated by the UK cover artists what the, just no Edited January 1 by Darwination Pat Calhoun, mrwoogieman, pmpknface and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
