The Grove of Doom

Awesome cover.  Fun story.  Would love to own the original painting and have it hang in my studio to inspire me.  So simple in design but very solid in execution.  I agree, Agent T, that the yellow would not be my first choice for the background color but this cover probably screamed at the buyer from the overcrowded newsstand.  After all the first and foremost job of the pulp cover was to attract and intrigue the public into parting with one thin dime.
