No Place On Earth To Lie Down!
Heritage Auctions claims this is the back cover of Amazing Stories, October 1945. Even though there was no October 1945 issue of Amazing Stories. So, yeah. Still awesome. [UPDATE: it’s from the October 1945 Fantastic Adventures]
This fantastic Norman Saunders painting of a damsel in distress in space marks the 6,000th post here at PulpCovers. It was first published on the cover of Super Science Stories (complete issue here), and later on the cover of Illustration magazine’s 2nd issue. On April 4th, 2012, it will be published again as the cover of the short-story collection Thunder In The Void.
I want to thank everyone for following along for the last year, and I hope to keep bringing you the Best Of The Worst for as long as you can stand it.
