Truly wonderful piece! Cover painting for the story "Horns of Hell" in the October 1956 issue of Man's Daring Adventures.

 

I have a copy somewhere. I'll dig it up unless someone else posts it.

 

Here's my copy of the magazine:

And a cover proof of it: :cloud9:

I don't own this and don't know where I got this picture from, might be from this board, so if it's yours and has already been talked about, I am sorry.

But I love this cover and can't find anything about it anywhere. I wonder if Cole did the interior illustrations too? That would be awesome.

I think he just did the cover. There's a few books in this line I think. They don't show up often and don't come cheap. I think there's another called "The history of Sex" too.

 

RTS - Killer stuff! I haven't started tracking down LB's covers in that title... yet.

 

I did snag this one last night though. I also have a cover proof of it:

Only Cole could get a way with white to show the blackness of space, eh?

 

 

I friggin' love this book. SO cool.

 

Oh, that Classics book above arrived today. It looks really cool in person. :)

Nice copies! RTS - is that just the scan? Does your scanner do x-rays???

 

Mine is around a 5.0 or so...
