"The Devil's Feud" by George!
Rozen, that is. The original is up for auction this month at the Dallas auction house Heritage Auctions. The colours are so much brighter than the printed piece. Over at The Cobalt Club there has been some discussion about the colours being duller during the War Years. The person posing the question wondered if the artists were painting with less vibrancy but I feel it was probably due to lower quality paper and a need to conserve everything, ink included. This is proof that the artists were still cranking out the bright hues needed to attract the pulp reader.
