Deluxe Edition - 1st printing. Written by Stephen D. Korshak, and J. David Spurlock. Art and Cover by Margaret Brundage. Starting in 1932, Margaret Brundage changed the look of Fantasy, Science-Fiction and Horror with her alluring sensationalistic covers for the legendary pulp magazine, Weird Tales.

Decades before the gothic fetish craze, Brundage's provocative paintings featuring semi-nude young women bearing whips, became a major controversy. At Weird Tales peak the magazine's appeal was due as much to Brundage's covers as to the stories by H.P. Lovecraft, Robert Bloch and Robert E. Howard.
