That plus the illustrations make it stand out.Sai Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14480681895921130917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4099827080854690588.post-53129980592238266162014-03-01T06:19:47.680-08:002014-03-01T06:19:47.680-08:00I agree with you about ADVENTURE in the 1940's...I agree with you about ADVENTURE in the 1940's. We all talk about how great the Hoffman years were in the teens and twenties but the thirties were good under Howard Bloomfield and the forties under Ken White were also of high quality. During the forties the magazine just did not use one illustration per story like most pulps, but instead followed BLUEBOOK's practice of having several illustrations for the long stories and serials.<br /><br />Since you make of point of saying the illustration is of a Mayan priest, maybe this art is by Earl Mayan! Otherwise I'll go with the great Flanagan. I'm glad to see some attention being paid to ADVENTURE of the forties.Walker Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16089880902426182100noreply@blogger.com
