Margaret Brundage -- Who knew?!
Nov. 12th, 2005 09:44 amOkay, I assume you all knew, but just weren't telling me. Didn't want me to get over-excited, I'm sure. Well, it's too late for that now!
After a brief discussion about Burroughs artists with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
maryread yesterday, in which I described Frazetta's eroticism as thick and ham-handed, I went googling for examples of J. Allen St John artwork and thereby stumbled upon the covers that Margaret Brundage did for Weird Tales in the 1930s. (It was a Weird Tales kind of day, because I also started reading CL Moore's Northwest Smith story, "Black Thirst".) Holy cow! Now this (not safe for work) is my kind of eroticism. This (also NSFW) ain't half bad either.
Those are just two of the better scans I've been able find on the Web, but you can see all of her Weird Tales covers (and loads and loads of other pulp covers) starting with the September issue from this page of the 1932 Weird Tales covers at a wonderful French site.
( Where have I been hiding all my life? )
