Pulp Fiction: Planet Stories

A novel of the future! Fantastic adventures! An astounding novel! The fiction of tomorrow - today! In a departure from my usual M.O. of posting only photography, I'd like to share some covers from the science fiction pulp magazines of the 30's and 40's. Whimsical, colorful, and often laugh-out-loud funny, these outlandish scenes are so much fun to look at. How entertainment has changed!
This one is my favorite. It reminds me of the game Bioshock, which takes place in a "city under the sea." The game even takes place in this era, and the design looks just like this.
