true, but the skin blotches on this one make it really disturbing!

 

B/c THIS is NOT disturbing :screwy: At least the guy on the Horror Stories is still alive :o

As much as I love this WC I have to side with Shiver on this one.

Though the facial expressions of terror are what make the pulp cover better than the comic for me!

Prehaps if Baily had the woman awake with a frightened look on her face, it would shock me more.

This was also one of my earliest ways of being introduced to comic books!

My childhood barber always had a stack of them to read! :applause:

 

Yeah, he got them from me.

A stack traded for a haircut.

Including my *choke* *sob* Amazing Spider-Man 1, because it was kinda beat up.

And there are even comics on the table. Looks like a FC Mickey Mouse on top.

 

Here's the back cover to Amazing Stories from November 1938, predicting the plane of 1988. I only wish trans-Atlantic flights were that posh :(

The artist of that illustration is Julian S. Krupa.

 

He was also the illustrator of an oversized coloring book (10½ x15") which was titled "Planes of Tomorrow." It was published in 1944 by Merrill Publication Company.

His grandson wrote a brief profile about him.
