Saw this yesterday while I was upping a 1956 gentleman's magazine (21, a funky one, mix of burlesque and sort of world erotica, Gene Bilbrew art, and other stuff) to the IA yesterday.  A little spread of girlie pulp covers in funky colorization.  A sort "hey look what they were doing 20 years ago, we aren't the first naughty mag" sort of deal.  Nice picks, though, Enoch Bolles' Salome is flat out classic.

McCoy's edit there.

Bolles' Salome, watch out boys when you catch that look, goodness gracious - (not my copy, apparently it came to eBay once but somehow I missed the auction)

Only recently figured out that the Worth Carnahan cover I posted a couple pages back is Salome:

which I figured out after seeing this one (I'm obviously not up on my Bible stories):

Better than a Sears catalog, or a National Geographic 👍

v01n01 of Hi-Jinks, a jazz age humor digest out of St. Paul published and edited by Guy F. Humphreys. A sad victim of sun-fading, but a rare bird.

I really love your Adventures in Romance layout - four page across.  Looks terrific onscreen.  Thank you!

Ha, a poor image of a good scan.  I wish I had the MCS original, but they take down the bigger images once a book sells (if it is non-auction).  I admit I didn't look exhaustively, though, when I indexed that title.  The gent at pulpcovers may be hosting a larger .jpeg

Definitely a very cool cover 👌

Bolles has at least a couple earlier takes on this pose.  I forget what Bob called this stance in PM.  Maybe the long board skaterboarders have a version, too?

Called “nose riding”. A tricky maneuver. I’ve seen skate boarders do it as well. And no, not on “tippy toes”…:roflmao:

ParisNightsv10n07(1932-02.Shade)coverHarryMoskovitz.thumb.jpg.1e1d0a659290c87aaaedf5da5d553f88.jpg

I'd forgotten about this one I got a little while back and found it today getting pressed in my bookshelf.  A little ragged, but the price was right, and I'm done explaining myself to you high grade dilettantes :makepoint:  You just don't see one of these from the all white cover run of Paris Nights too often. Very cool interiors, but the real bonus (besides the fact I'm crazy for the cover artist) is a Kirk Wolff story, pseudonym for Kenneth Fearing.
