There's nothing quite like pulp novel cover art.... Next summer I am totally getting a t-shirt printed with this image.

Some years ago I sent the link for this cover art to a friend of mine who is a Tax Writer for the professional publisher I used to work for. He saved it as his computer wallpaper.

If I were a lesbian, I would get this one printed on a t-shirt.

A friend of mine who is a librarian had the cover art for a "career girl" novel called "The Loveliest Librarian" printed on a t-shirt.

Little did the artists who created these images know where their work would wind up or to what purposes it would be put.

I've noticed with lesbian pulps that the dark haired lady on the cover is usually the butch.

These are very cool.

It's not a pulp cover, but I actually do have a t-shirt with this movie poster on it, which kind of has the same vibe.
