Beautiful Quality war era eagle cover!

Pretty nice copy all around. Small single staple pull with a little bit of rust. Not much migration.

Pioneer Picture Stories #5

1942 rare gem by Street and Smith that is just pure awesomeness. Leopards!

Has slight dust shadow right edge, a sub crease and wear. Looks like book was only manufactured with one lower staple as it looks like it should be formatted for two. However no marks showing any staple removal of any kind. In my experience Street and Smith publish cheaply with a lot of weird anomalies such as this. Book opens and reads fine despite. Structurally all good!

Now that this is sold, It's time to drop artistic shade...

I love LB Cole, he's one of my favs, but damn just how many errors in perspective can you have on a cover???
Let's count them...

1/ That car is only 2.5 ft wide
2/ The steering wheel is flat as a flounder with no dimension
3/ How is she positioned like that in a 2.5 ft wide car? Damn, the girl's buttcheeks must be touching the back of her head
4/ The drivers car door has no dimension and is flat
5/ Is the car driven straight into a tree to get a close up of tree limbs like that? That might explain the poor girls broken back...
6/ What the heck is that on the left of the composition in the passengers window? It looks like cartoon sonic lines?

This is a classic and I love it (for all the wrong reasons), but folks it's a train wreck! lol!

O.o

I'm with you. It's just funny how many GA classics that are out there that have bizarre structural errors all throughout them (cough, cough, Blue Beetle 54)...

If this was my first look at LB, I would say this is no body but a tracing hack. When you have a beautiful drawing that has no structure it screams that.

But then again, My fav cover series of all time is Mask 1 and 2. If they were some how hacked, I really don't want to know...

 

Bottom line is, almost like their are critics of cubism, even with all this the cover still works and most don't even see it unless it's brought to their attention.

:grin:

Hard to argue with the rest, but 6/ is the upholstery on the car seat.

Thanks for clarifying that. After thinking about it - I thought that the girl could be possibly laying down with the rest of her torso in the back, but since the seat definitely isn't reclined I go back to the notion that she is basically wearing her glutes as a hat!
