I resell vintage items as part of Grrl Pickers (visit our page: grrlpickers.com) and while researching this paperback pulp novel to put up for sale in our Etsy shop, I found out that the cover artist was a local man, Charles Copeland.
From wikipedia: " In 1888, Charles and Eda lived at 21 Pemberton Square in Boston, MA, while having a house built in Newton, MA. In Newton, he established himself as a full-time artist. His illustrations appear in Youth's Companion, a popular young people’s magazine of the time. In addition, Copeland illustrated many books."
At first glance, I thought maybe the artist was Frazetta but as exciting as that would be to have, I ma actually a bit more excited to have found out about a local artist that I never knew about before picking up this book.
