Vintage pulp fiction illustrations.
As movie genres go, I have an intense love of classic film noir, and I have an affinity for the pulp fiction readers published during the golden era. The cover illustrations were almost always provocative and produced by very talented artists.
The illustrations shown above appeared on both the original and reprinted publications as book covers for this novel in the 1950s. It's a good read, by the way; a gritty noir PI story.
The first is by an artist/photographer(?) unknown to me. The second, a re-release, was done by illustrator Rudy Nappi, a favorite of mine from that steamy and sexy era of pulp.
